ABSTRACT: The purpose of this research is anticipating quality of life regarding power, family collaboration and
family functions. To achieve this goal, we used two sample societies of working women (150) and housewives (150)
and the method of regional sampling in municipality districts of Bastak County. Also, questionnaires about power
structure, family functions and quality of life were utilized for gathering data. Additionally, in order to analyze data
descriptively we employed mean statistics and standard deviation and for inductive analysis, hierarchal regression
test and independent t were used. Finding shows that family functions, collaboration and power structure may
significantly help anticipating quality of life (R
2
= 0.32). Also, there is a significant difference between mentioned
factors in working women and housewives (p = 0.017, t = 2.4 and p = 0.005, t = 2.84 respectively). Thus, we can claim
that power structure and family functions are effective variables on life styles and women’s job highly contributes
on psychological state of families.
