The desire for divorce is one of the psychological problems that men may face during their married life. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of group training in relational imagery on the mentalization of emotion, lovemaking styles, an‎d fear of intimacy in men inclined to divorce. This study was based on the purpose, applied, an‎d also in terms of research design, a quasi-experimental method with a pre-test an‎d post-test design with a control group. The population under study were men inclined to divorce in Isfahan in 1403. The sample of this study consisted of 30 men who were selec‎ted in a non-ran‎dom, voluntary an‎d purposeful manner based on the inclusion criteria an‎d were ran‎domly assigned to two experimental an‎d control groups. The experimental group participated in 8 sessions of relational imagery (imagotherapy). The measurement tools were the Affective Mentalization Questionnaire (Greenberg et al., 2017), the Loving Styles Questionnaire (Hendrick an‎d Hendrick, 1986), the Fear of Intimacy Questionnaire (Deschottner an‎d Thelen, 1991), an‎d the Divorce Intention Questionnaire (Roosevelt et al., 1986). The results of multivariate covariance showed that group training in relational imagery significantly improved affective mentalization, loving styles, an‎d fear of intimacy in the experimental group. Given the effect of group training in relational imagery on affective mentalization, loving styles, an‎d fear of intimacy, it is recommended that counselors an‎d psychologists use this method to work with men who are inclined to divorce.
