Introduction
Violence as a problem has always attracted the attention of researchers and many efforts have been made by them to control and reduce this problem among different groups (1). Meanwhile, anger management as an important issue in married life plays an important role in the growth and excellence of families and can reduce interpersonal tensions. Anger management is often an individual issue, the solution can often involve a group effort. Anger management couples counseling is a way for you as a couple to approach the recurring issue of anger in your relationship (2).
Anger management skills is a cognitive behavioral intervention that focuses on anger as a driving force behind violence. Also, the skill of anger control includes various strategies to minimize violence in people's relationships, so that it does not interfere with doing daily tasks and activities, but instead causes motivation and progress (6).
Schema therapy is a new and integrated method, which is mainly based on the expansion of the concepts and methods of classical cognitive behavioral therapy. The therapeutic scheme has combined the principles and foundations of cognitive-behavioral, attachment, gestalt, object relations, structuralism, and psychoanalysis schools in the form of a therapeutic model and a valuable concept. Nevertheless, the therapeutic scheme is not an eclectic treatment that proceeds through trial and error, but is based on a coherent and integrated theory (8).
Another method used in this study is cognitive behavioral therapy. This method is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on the influence of a person's beliefs, thoughts and attitudes on his feelings and behaviors. The goal of cognitive behavioral therapy is to teach you how to actively face and overcome various problems or events throughout your life. research gap regarding the effect of forgiveness-oriented schema therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy on anger management of women with marital conflicts; It has caused evidences regarding these treatment approaches to be unavailable today. In such a way that this issue has caused the scientific approach to deal with anger to not be understood as an important issue. Therefore, the researcher is trying to answer the question whether forgiveness-based schema therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy have an effect on anger management of women with marital conflicts referring to family counseling clinics in Shiraz or not?

In order to carry out the current applied research, which was carried out in a semi-experimental way and with a pre-test-post-test design, among women with marital conflicts in the year 2019 in Shiraz city, who after completing the questionnaire of marital conflicts, obtained a high score in conflicts (111 and above). 45 people were purposefully selected and randomly divided into 3 groups of 15 people: cognitive behavioral therapy, forgiveness-oriented schema therapy, and control. Then the experimental groups received the desired interventions under the supervision of the researcher. It should be noted that before and after the interventions, all the subjects completed the Spielberger Anger Control Questionnaire. In order to analyze the data of the present research, descriptive statistics and analysis of covariance and Bonferroni post hoc tests were used to analyze the data. This analysis was done using SPSS software.

The results of the pairwise comparison of the mean scores of anger management (Table 4) show that there is a significant difference between the forgiveness-oriented and cognitive-behavioral therapy (P < 0.001), as well as the package of forgiveness-oriented and cognitive-behavioral therapy, both on the anger management of women with Marital conflict was effective and had a significant difference in terms of average post-test scores with the control group (P<0.05).
Discussion

The results of statistical analysis in the previous chapter showed that both schema therapy and cognitive-behavioral treatments were significantly effective in reducing the anger of women with marital conflicts, compared to the control group. In schema therapy, emotions and emotional regulation are completely related to the concept of schema state. This concept is the basic and most complex aspect of the theoretical model presented by Yang et al. (2007) (16). A mood is a dominant disordered emotional state that is thwarted by thought, emotional, and behavioral patterns based on a set of specific needs. Usually, states are activated by internal or external stimuli and may include both adaptive and maladaptive responses (16).
In particular, a dysfunctional state is manifested by maladaptive schemas or coping responses that manifest in uncomfortable emotions, avoidance responses, or self-destructive behaviors, and it affects a person's behavior and controls his emotional functioning. The basic concept of state theory in schema therapy is that different mental states have different goals and are related to different needs. The therapist's first goal in schema therapy is to understand and conceptualize the client's performance model. This work is done for simplification and helps the clients to understand their performance method. There are four macro classes of mode (17).
Schema therapy emphasizes moment-to-moment changes in awareness of emotions and feelings and helps clients to identify their negative emotions (including anger) and express them in the right way. In the meantime, the therapist also intervenes and defends the state of the vulnerable child and helps the clients to communicate with the damaged child through a healthy adult, and a dialogue is formed between them and helps the damaged child to understand the events that happened during Remember that they are related to this excitement and look at them with the perspective of a healthy adult (13). Therefore, it can be concluded that regulating emotions such as anger, through identifying and changing ineffective states and transforming them into efficient and healthy states, will reduce anger and manage it more.
