Regarding the specific needs of thisperiod, considering the empowerment, dignity, and self-efficacy in the elders is very important too,which is frequently neglected. This study aims to determine the effect of family-based interventionson the elders’ empowerment with emphasis on self-efficacy, self-esteem, perceive threat, andquality of life of the elders in Isfahan. Materials and Methods: In this semi-experimental study,64 elderly people with the ability to perform routine and daily tasks without dependence onothers and without systemic and restrictive diseases were chosen by available sampling methodand were divided into two intervention and control groups. In intervention group, the model offamily-based empowerment was trained and conducted in ten 45-minute sessions. The level ofperceived threat, self-esteem, self-efficacy, and life quality in both groups were evaluated beforeand after intervention through a questionnaire. Chi Square, paired and independent t-test wereused for statistical analysis.

Statistical test of independent t-test showed a significant differencein intervention and control groups after conducting the program in the score of the self-esteem(P < 0.001). Regarding self-efficiency, independent t-test did not show any significant differencebetween the two groups before intervention. Despite the increase of self-efficacy score afterintervention, this difference was not significant (P = 0.076).
