The findings indicated that: 1) The digital economy construct has a positive and significant influence on women's empowerment (t=2.990); 2) Women's empowerment ha a positive and significant influence on the family economy (t=7.141); and 3) The digital economy and women's empowerment has a positive and significant influence on the family economy (F=242.61).
