Abstract
Gender differences in entrepreneurial intentions and agentic traits frequently
linked to entrepreneurship (locus of control, entrepreneurial self-efficacy, risk-taking
propensity, and proactiveness) were examined using a sample of Spanish university
students, 535 women and 283 men. Self-reported data were collected through a
questionnaire consisting of several scales. MANOVA results showed gender
differences in entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurial self-efficacy, in the sense
that men felt themselves more efficient and oriented to create a new venture than
women. Nevertheless, major area and age explained differences in the variables
studied better than gender.
