| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of transactional analysis training on love styles of couples in Khoram- abad. It was a quasi-experimental design with pre and post-tests and a control group. The population was the couples who referred to counseling centers in Khoram- abad in 2008-2009. The sample consisted of 30 couples (60 persons) who were randomly selected, and assigned to two experimental and control groups. The couples in the experimental group received transactional analysis training, and at the end, both groups took a post-test. Lee’s love styles questionnaire was used as the measuring instrument. The results of analysis of covariance showed that transactional analysis training significantly affected eros, storge, pragma, mania and agape love styles (p<0.05). However, it did not significantly affect ludus love style (p>0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that transactional analysis training seems to be able to improve eros, storge, pragma, mania and agape love styles of the couples.
