BANDA CASTRO, Ana Lilia; MORALES ZAMORANO, Miguel Arturo y VANEGAS LIZARRAGA, Ana Cynthia. Talking to empowerment: a study of a sample of male in northwest Mexico. Rev. de psicol. y cienc. del comport. de la Unidad Académica de Cienc. Juríd. y Sociales [online]. 2015, vol.6, n.1, pp.86-99. ISSN 2007-1833.
The members of the communities are potentially enablers of personal and community development. Likewise, empowerment plays an important role in the actions taken by these social actors with gender differences in first place, so the question of the existence of differences addresses the aim of this study to identify the intrapersonal component of a sample of male belonging to an urban population, whose elements are consistent with those raised by a theory of empowerment. 57 people answered a questionnaire with 81 items belonging to the Tennessee and personal agency and empowerment scales. Structural equations were used to identify the intrapersonal component of empowerment composed of self-concept, self-esteem, self-efficacy and empowerment elements. The results obtained from the proposed model supports the theoretical model. It was concluded that the sample of men studied has a positive intrapersonal component that differs from that characterized the sample of women, suggesting that in the first instance building actions for the population must be directed towards the female gender.
