| Summary: | The empowerment of women has been acknowledged as a critical concept across various strategies, especially in recent times, drawing the interest of numerous advocates for women's rights, as well as governmental and non-governmental entities. Consequently, the objective of this investigation is to shed light on the sociological effects of personal predispositions as a form of agency on the economic empowerment of women in Tehran.Employing a quantitative approach, this research utilized a survey method with a multi-stage cluster random sampling technique, identifying a statistical population of 402 individuals as per the Cochran formula.The analysis, based on a multiple regression model, demonstrates that the independent variables of the study collectively account for approximately 25% of the variance in the economic empowerment of women. The findings suggest that the most significant factor influencing women's propensity for economic empowerment in Tehran is their entrepreneurial spirit. Subsequent influential factors include self-esteem, independence, a penchant for innovation, a rejection of fatalism, competitiveness, self-efficacy, and the ambition for advancement.Further analysis explored the influence of “marital status,” “education,” and “employment” on the economic empowerment of women in Tehran. The results indicated that unmarried women with higher levels of education and those who are employed exhibit greater economic empowerment than their counterparts in different circumstances.The research conclusions suggest that the economic empowerment of women can foster their greater involvement in the economy, contribute to economic growth, and bolster the economic stability of households. Policymakers must create supportive environments and provide resources to boost women's inclinations. |
