Purpose: The purpose of this study was to measure empowerment and to identify factors influencing empowerment.
Method: Subjects included 767 clients registered with the customized home visiting health services in Daegu. Data collection was performed from June 3 to July 30, 2011. Descriptive statistics, χ2 test, ANOVA, and stepwise multiple regression were used in this study.
Results: The mean score for total empowerment was 3.01(±0.28). In subscales of total empowerment, the score for individual empowerment was 2.97(±0.36), the score for interpersonal relationship empowerment was 3.09(±0.34), and the score for political-social empowerment was 2.96(±0.48). Job, education, economic status, living arrangement, and client classification were significant factors related to total empowerment in these clients. Job, education, economic status, types of health insurance, living arrangement, age, and client classification were significant factors related to individual empowerment, interpersonal relationship empowerment and political-social empowerment. 4.4 percent of the variance in total empowerment can be explained by education and living arrangement (Cum R2=0.044, F=13.207, p<.001). Individual empowerment, interpersonal relationship empowerment, and political-social empowerment can be explained by education, job, economic status, and living arrangement.
Conclusion: An empowerment intervention that includes general characteristics of clients is essential to improving empowerment of customized home visiting health care services beneficiaries.
