Method: In this randomized clinical trial, 79 women were recruited. Forty were assigned to the experimental group and attended the four-week program (6 hours), and 39 were assigned to the control group. Sexual behaviours, sexual scripts, and sexual distress were determined by a questionnaire that was completed before and after, eight and 12 weeks post intervention. The control group received the intervention based on the sexual health model post experiment. Independent samples t-test were used for statistical analysis. Results: According to the findings of the present study, significant differences were observed between the groups for the scores of sexual behavior in the follow-ups (P=.001; F=26.582). Conclusion: The utilization of the four-session culture-oriented marital enrichment packa significantly improved sexual behaviors, altered sexual scripts, and decreased sexual distress. Our findings provide the basis for a larger Randomized-Controlled Trial (RCT) with a longer follow-up period among couples. %U https://www.behavsci.ir/article_165841_334fba034914550c49385d4da804ddce.pdf
