The aim of this concept analysis is to define economic solvency in the context of violence against women. Poverty, or lack of resources, is often discussed as a risk factor for intimate partner violence. The concept of economic solvency, which may be a protective factor for women, is less often discussed and not well defined. Databases searched for the analysis included EBSCOhost, CINAHL, PubMed and Gender Watch. The Rodgers evolutionary method was used to perform the concept analysis. A total of 134 articles were retrieved, using the specified search terms 'economic solvency and women', 'economic self-reliance and women' and 'economic self-sufficiency and women'. Articles were included if they were peer reviewed, contained the keywords with sufficient context to determine the author's intended meaning, and focused on women only or contrasted men to women. Thirty-five articles were used in the concept analysis. The definition of economic solvency drawn from the concept analysis is: a long-term state that occurs when there is societal structure that supports gender equity and external resources are available and can be used by a woman who has necessary human capital, sustainable employment and independence. Just as poverty and violence are cyclical, so are economic solvency and empowerment of women. To decrease women's risk of intimate partner violence around the world and further improve the status of women, we recommend continued research on economic solvency, including the individual, family, community and societal resources required to obtain economic solvency and the human capital characteristics needed for sustainability.
本概念分析的目的是在针对妇女的暴力行为背景下界定经济偿付能力。贫困或资源匮乏常被视为亲密伴侣暴力的一个风险因素。而经济偿付能力这一概念，它可能是妇女的一个保护因素，却较少被讨论且定义不明确。为该分析检索的数据库包括EBSCOhost、CINAHL、PubMed和性别观察数据库。采用罗杰斯进化方法进行概念分析。使用指定的搜索词“经济偿付能力与妇女”“经济自立与妇女”和“经济自给自足与妇女”共检索到134篇文章。若文章经过同行评审、包含能充分确定作者意图的关键词且聚焦于女性或对男性与女性进行对比，则将其纳入。35篇文章用于概念分析。从概念分析中得出的经济偿付能力的定义为：当存在支持性别平等的社会结构，且有外部资源可供具备必要人力资本、可持续就业和独立性的女性使用时所呈现的一种长期状态。正如贫困与暴力是循环的，经济偿付能力与妇女赋权也是如此。为降低全球范围内妇女遭受亲密伴侣暴力的风险并进一步提升妇女地位，我们建议继续开展关于经济偿付能力的研究，包括获得经济偿付能力所需的个人、家庭、社区和社会资源，以及可持续性所需的人力资本特征。
