Conflict is the disagreement and opposition between individuals with each other, the incompatibility of the views, goals, and behaviors that are in opposition to others. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between attachment styles and identity styles with marital conflicts in couples referring to counseling centers in Mashhad. The present research is descriptive - correlation. For this purpose, 223 males and females from Mashhad counseling centers in 2016-2017 were selected with the objective sampling method. The research tools were the marital conflict questionnaire (MCQ), Collins and Reid's attachment styles questionnaire (1990), and Bonie and Adams identity styles questionnaire (OMEIS-2) (1989). Data were analyzed by statistical methods including frequency, mean, standard deviation, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multivariate regression. The results showed that there was a significant correlation with marital conflicts (P = 0.0001, r = 0.77), as well as identity styles showed a significant correlation with marital conflicts (p = 0.0001, r = 0.89). Marital conflicts can be predicted based on attachment styles and identity styles, and attention to those factors guide behavioral science experts in assessing and treating marital problems.
