摘要：Abstract In this research we investigate an interdisciplinary issue between psychology and economy. During a series of workshops conducted in Tehran, in 2010, we presented basic and daily applications of simple economic principles to women. We found that there is a relationship between the women's decisions for employment and the psychological impressions they have obtained from their mothers. The theoretical background of this investigation lies in archetypal psychology and the women heroine's journey. We derived a hypothesis that those women who have dependent and housewife mothers, display a stronger tendency to decide to work and to choose an economic occupation. Questionnaires were prepared on the basis of this hypothesis for the women who took part in workshops. Statistical studies on the results proved our hypothesis about this relationship. We also found that the mother's psychological impression on daughters is not limited to denying the mother's lifestyle. Additional studies in this area can elucidate some of the complex issues involved in women's decisions for employment.
