摘要

目的在大多数大学创业教育(EE)项目中,女性的代表性不足,而且与男性相比,女性不太可能将创业作为一种职业。其中一个原因可能是“企业家身份差距”,即女学生并不认为自己是成功的企业家。本文旨在探讨这种身份差距的本质及其与创业意图和创业教育的关系。设计/方法论/方法利用创业主题专家开发了一套当代、性别包容的创业属性,并对591名大学生进行了测试,以探索性别创业身份差距的本质。发现尽管男性刻板印象依然存在,女性学生的创业身份差距更大,但研究结果表明,学生群体中正在出现一种更具性别包容性的创业词汇,并对理想化的企业家产生了雌雄同体的看法。创业教育对创业意愿有积极影响。研究局限性/含义研究结果推动了关于创业身份、性别身份差距的性质以及教育在缩小这一差距中的作用的讨论。调查问卷和一套性别包容性属性应继续在学生样本之外进行测试。实践含义基于这项研究,创业教育可以受益于更具性别包容性的教学实践和词汇,以及对创业含义的更广泛定义。更多的学生——无论男女——都将把自己视为企业家,并受到激励参与创新经济。独创性/价值本研究采用了一种新颖的方法来研究创业身份,围绕商业冒险开发了一套新的属性和当代词汇。

Exploring the gendered entrepreneurial identity gap: implications for entrepreneurship education
Purpose Women are underrepresented in most university entrepreneurship education (EE) programmes and less likely than men to pursue business venturing as a career. One reason may be the “entrepreneurial identity gap”, whereby female students do not see themselves as successful entrepreneurs. This paper aims to explore the nature of this identity gap and its relationship to entrepreneurial intent and entrepreneurship education. Design/methodology/approach A set of contemporary, gender-inclusive entrepreneurial attributes was developed using entrepreneurial subject matter experts and tested with 591 university students to explore the nature of the gendered entrepreneurial identity gap. Findings While masculine stereotypes persist and the entrepreneurial identity gap is larger for female students, results suggest that a more gender-inclusive vocabulary of entrepreneurship is emerging among the student population and an androgynous perception of the idealized entrepreneur. Entrepreneurship education had a positive influence on entrepreneurial intent. Research limitations/implications Study findings advance the conversation about entrepreneurial identity, the nature of the gendered identity gap and the role of education in closing that gap. The questionnaire and set of gender-inclusive attributes should continue to be tested beyond student samples. Practical implications Based on this study, entrepreneurship education could benefit from more gender-inclusive instructional practices and vocabulary and a broadened definition of what it means to be entrepreneurial. More students – both men and women – will see themselves as entrepreneurs and be inspired to participate in the innovation economy. Originality/value This study takes a novel approach to the study of entrepreneurial identity, developing a new set of attributes and contemporary vocabulary around business venturing.
