Abstract

The present article analyzes the existence of gender differences in the perceptions and attitudes of university students towards entrepreneurship. It measures perceptions of the public image of the entrepreneur, along with the desirability, viability and intentionality of students towards creating their own business. The empirical data for this research comes from a sample of university students who have attended a Business Creation program run by the venture capital association known as Fostering Entrepreneurs hip in Extremadura, Spain. Data analysis using bivariate and multivariate techniques reveal significant results, indicating that gender plays a significant role in how the figure of the entrepreneur is perceived and on the intention to generate new business.

According to North, institutions cannot see, feel, touch or measure; they are constructions of the human mind.
 
2
North defines “political entrepreneurs or economic entrepreneurs” as those agents of change that have the ability to decide within an organization and can thereby alter their growth and change.

We consider the variables categorically in the regression as k-1, dummy variables and those codified through the method of codification of the indicator. This method represents the k-1 categories for 1 or 0 and the reference category has zeros, representing the coefficients of regression for the dummy variable, the deviations for each group with respect to the reference category. These group differences can be directly assigned values, given the fact that coefficients are in the same units as the dependent variable.
