Based on the theoretical framework of historical materialism and with the help of text mining technology, this study systematically examines the influence mechanism of Chinese feminism on the change of women’s social status in modern times. Three hundred texts on modern women’s issues between 1919 and 1949 are selected for word frequency statistics, which are combined with the LDA topic model to reveal the relevance of key themes. The experimental and control groups are divided to verify the influence of feminism on marital autonomy and family decision-making mode. Analyze the specific factors affecting women’s social status advancement through multiple regression analysis. Years of education, occupational participation, legal awareness and annual family income have significant positive effects on women’s social status satisfaction. Among them, the influence of years of education is the most prominent (β=0.32), the standardized coefficient of occupational participation (β=0.28) is the second most important, and the significant influence of legal cognition score (β=0.25) indicates that the awakening of the awareness of the rights is an important psychological mechanism for the improvement of women’s social status. Annual household income has a positive but weak effect (β=0.18), while age fails the significance test. Overall, the model explains about 48% of the variance in social status satisfaction, providing a new analytical perspective for understanding the historical logic of modern female emancipation.
