Main Article Content
บทคัดย่อ
This study investigates the social participation behavior of female university leaders in Kunming, Yunnan Province, China, focusing on five dimensions: policy support, volunteering and interaction, opinion expression, conference organization, and personal activities. Data were collected using a five-point Likert scale.
The study reveals that female leaders in universities demonstrate high engagement in volunteer activities and personal academic tasks but show lower participation in political activities and opinion expression through formal channels. The findings highlight how societal factors, institutional structures, and role conflicts influence on the social participation behaviors of female university leaders. The study underscores the need to enhance their political and academic engagement while addressing systemic barriers. These findings provide actionable insights into promoting gender equity and leadership development in higher education.
