Women’s empowerment is a multidimensional concept encompassing educational opportunities,
health and well-being, economic participation, decision-making, social participation, political
awareness, legal awareness, personal autonomy, gender equality, and self-confidence. The
present study examined the interrelationships among ten dimensions of women’s empowerment
across three generations of women in India. A quantitative correlational research design
was adopted, with 300 women equally distributed into three generational groups: daughters,
mothers, and grandmothers, with 100 participants in each group. Data were collected using a
structured Women’s Empowerment Questionnaire comprising ten dimensions: educational
empowerment, health and well-being, economic empowerment, decision-making power, social
empowerment and participation, political empowerment and awareness, legal awareness and
rights, mobility and personal autonomy, family status and gender equality, and self-confidence,
self-efficacy and aspirations. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the scores, while
Pearson’s product-moment correlation coefficient was employed to examine the relationships
among the ten dimensions. The study was further informed by historical literature concerning
the changing status of women in India. The correlational approach provided an understanding
of how different aspects of empowerment are interconnected within the experiences of women
across generations. The study contributes to a multidimensional understanding of women’s
empowerment by examining empowerment as an interconnected set of educational, health,
economic, social, legal, familial, and personal domains rather than as a single construct.
