AGUILAR, Pedro D; PEREZ, Anna  y  CAMPOS, Alejandro. Challenging stereotypes in Mexico: Impact on university students' entrepreneurial intentions. Espacios [online]. 2024, vol.45, n.6, pp.83-96.  Epub 24-Ene-2025. ISSN 0798-1015.  https://doi.org/10.48082/espacios-a24v45n06p07.

This study examines how gender stereotypes influence the entrepreneurial intentions of university students in Mexico. Through a survey of 399 students at the University of Guadalajara, the research reveals that traits traditionally viewed as masculine, such as leadership and risk-taking, are positively associated with entrepreneurial intentions, while feminine traits show a negative correlation. The findings highlight the need for policies that promote gender equity, challenging prevailing stereotypes to foster a more inclusive and diverse entrepreneurial environment.

Palabras clave : higher education; gender stereotypes; entrepreneurial intentions.
