        The research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of culture- oriented schema- based pre-marital education on spouse choosing beliefs and the fear of failure in marriage in divorced- parents single girls with the schema of abandonment. The research design was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test and follow-up with a control group. The statistical population included the single divorced- parents- girls with the schema of abandonment in Isfahan City. Thirty individuals were selected by convenient sampling method and randomly assigned in two experimental and control groups, 15 subjects each. Young & Brown (1998) Early Maladaptive Schemas Questionnaire- Short Form (EMSQ-SF), Cobb, Larson & Watson (2003) Attitudes about Romance and Mate Selection and Esmaeilpour& Nourmohammadi (2022) Fear of Marriage Questionnaire were administered to the participants. The experimental group was exposed to 8 sessions of 90 minutes of culture- oriented schema- based pre-marital education program, but control group did not receive any. The data were analyzed by repeated measure analysis of variance. The results showed that culture- oriented schema- based pre-marital education had a significant effect on the rejection and abandonment schema, the spouse-selection beliefs including believing in love, experience-centeredness, idealism, contrast-seeking, and easy-to-see, and the variable of fear of marriage in the post-test stage. (p < 0.05). Concerning the results of the research; culture- oriented schema- based pre-marital education was an effective intervention to reduce the ineffective beliefs of choosing a spouse and the fear of marriage among single girls who had divorced parents.
