This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of education. Entrepreneurial information-motivational empowerment was done on self-efficacy in job decision making and life expectancy of female-headed households. Twenty-two female heads of households referred to the Imam Khomeini Relief Committee of Ardakan were selected by convenience sampling in spring 1398 and were randomly divided into two experimental and control groups, each containing 11 individuals. The experimental group received 8 sessions of training based on the psychological empowerment components protocol based on the theory of Thomas Waltheus (1990), while the control group received no intervention. To evaluate the subjects, Taylor and Betz (1983) job decision self-efficacy questionnaire and Snyder's life expectancy questionnaire (1991) were used. The results of covariance analysis showed that motivational information empowerment training in entrepreneurship domain, increased self-efficacy in job decision making and life expectancy of female head of household had a significant impact. Career decision making and life expectancy were effective for female-headed households; this intervention is recommended for female-headed households in support institutions and on a larger scale to prevent further harm to these women.
