Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the economic, social, psychological, and family empowerment of rural women who were members of microfinance Credits in Sistan area in 2017. The main research tool was a researcher-made questionnaire whose validity was confirmed. The statistical population of the study included 318 rural women who were members of Sistan microfinance Credits. 170 subjects were selected through random cluster sampling based on the Morgan Table. The results of data analysis indicated that the lowest power of the subjects was in the family dimension and their maximum power was psychological. In addition to this, the economic, social, psychological, family, and general empowerment of subjects who were heads of household were significantly more than those who were not heads of household. Besides, there was a positive and significant correlation between the variables of economic, psychological and total empowerment of subjects and number of loans received by them. Moreover, the variables of times of receiving loan and income rate explained 31. 2% of the changes in the total empowerment of the subjects. Encouragement of rural women to get a loan in order to improve business is one of the suggestions of the study.
