Abstract:
Introduction

The number of female heads of households has increased in recent years due to widespread social and demographic changes in Iranian society. At the same time, most of these women are part of the vulnerable strata of society, so their empowerment is important.

Method

The method used in this research is a systematic review. The materials used for the present study includes published articles that have dealt with the subject of "empowerment of female heads of households" in Persian scientific sites. Thirty-two articles were selected. Finally, after carefully reviewing and comparing the worksheets specific to each article, the obtained data were collected, described, and analyzed, and based on them, the purpose of the study was addressed.

Findings

In the articles related to the empowerment of female heads of households, different variables and factors have been considered. In the present article, in addition to contextual factors (age, education, number of dependents, duration of care, marital status), the main and important factors studied in three groups (socio-cultural, economic, personal-psychological) are classified and summarized. Important strategies and suggestions of the studied articles are also presented and divided into economic, social, educational, and consulting dimensions.

Discussion

Systematic review of the previous articles shows that the major need for research on the empowerment of female heads of households is to pay more attention to different dimensions of the empowerment process. A conceptual model can be proposed in which the process of empowerment of female heads of households is studied in a cyclical, multidimensional, and interdisciplinary manner.
