]Psychological empowerment (PE) has been conceptualized with three components: intrapersonal,interactional, and behavioral. Collectively, these three components come together as shown inFigure 1, which is used as a framework to interpret the data within this research [5]. PE is rootedin a social action framework that includes community change, capacity building, and collectivity[7-9]. The intrapersonal component refers to how people think about their capacity to influencethe social and political systems important to them. The interactional component refers to thetransactions between individuals and environments that enable them to successfully master socialor political systems.
