  The purpose of current research was to study the effectiveness of subliminal stimulation on the symptoms of obsessive - compulsive disorder based on cultural issues in women in Tehran. The statistical population of the present study embraced all working women in state administrations of 10th district in Tehran in 1401. The sample subsumed 40 female employees whom were selected by convenience sampling procedure and allocated in two experimental and control groups, 20 subjects each. The research was a semi - experimental and was implemented as a pre-test – post-test design with a control. The data were gathered via Obsessive Compulsive Symptoms Scale (Goodman et al., 1989). The subliminal stimulation procedure was applied an hour daily during three months. To analyze the data multivariate covariance analysis (MANCOVA) and univariate covariance analysis (ANCOVA) were used. The results indicated that the subliminal stimulation intervention was effective on the symptoms of obsessive - compulsive disorder based on cultural issues in women (P<0.05). Studies also showed that obsessive-compulsive disorder is one of the mental disorder s that could appear under the influence of cultural factors. Therefore, identifying specific cultural issues related to the symptoms of this disorder is of special clinical importance. The most cultural effects on obsessive-compulsive disorder were respectively caused by false religious beliefs, family relationships, reactions of family members and emotions, norms and social views towards individuals, as well as other specific cultural beliefs and concerns. So, it is necessary to concern the cultural issues of the patients' family and society in order to treat obsessive-compulsive disorders. Manuscript profile
