Abstract

Women entrepreneurs in rural Spain play a vital role in combating depopulation, yet they often encounter challenges impacting their professional satisfaction. This study investigates factors influencing satisfaction among female entrepreneurs associated with the Confederation of Rural Women (CERES). We utilized the Motivation and Conditionings of the Entrepreneurial Career Questionnaire (MCCE) with a sample of 379 cases, analyzing data using a logit model. Results reveal intrinsic motivation and Career counselling as key determinants of satisfaction. Furthermore, findings suggest that work-life balance factors may also influence satisfaction. Despite facing adversity, these women remain crucial in rural Spain's depopulation struggle.

西班牙农村妇女赋权：创业职业满意度研究

西班牙农村的女企业家在应对人口减少方面发挥着至关重要的作用，但她们经常遇到影响其职业满意度的挑战。本研究调查了影响农村妇女联合会（CERES）女企业家满意度的因素。本文利用《创业生涯动机与制约因素问卷》（MCCE），选取379个案例，采用logit模型进行数据分析。结果显示，内在动机和职业咨询是满意度的关键决定因素。此外，研究结果表明，工作与生活的平衡因素也可能影响满意度。尽管面临逆境，这些妇女在西班牙农村人口减少的斗争中仍然至关重要。
