This research aims to analyze how demographic factors, such as age and education, influence women's roles in financial management and economic decisions, while considering the impact of patriarchal culture on their participation. This research utilizes quantitative data by using quantitative descriptive research by means of a survey, distributing questionnaires to respondents to measure variables in research on a population or sample.
