MUNOZ-MARQUEZ, CLARA EDITH; MORALES BARRERA, RAQUEL e DOMINGUEZ-ESPINOSA, ALEJANDRA. Model of Psychological Empowerment Based on Structural Equations for Predicting Autonomy. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.2, pp.55-69. Epub 02-Jun-2022. ISSN 0121-5469. https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v30n2.82149.
The study relies on the assumption that one of the main effects of phycological empowerment composed by attributes like self-esteem, locus of control, and assertiveness, is increased autonomy. The theoretical arguments are tested based on a structural equation model that allows estimating hypothetical relationships simultaneously. Additionally, differences in means between women and men are estimated for each phycological variable and the hypothetical model is tested separately to both sexes. 1,569 people (56% women) from five Mexican States compose the sample. The average age is 29 years and 59% of the sample has college degrees. The results suggest that psychological empowerment is strongly related to autonomy.
