The concept of empowerment is used in nursing as two constructs: structural and psychological.

Methods: Walker and Avant’s method of concept analysis was used Results: Autonomy and influence are considered major attributes of the structural empowerment concept in nursing. The method used for concept analysis provided purposeful clarification of the concept and confirmed the findings of the analysis.
