RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STUDENTS' GENDER, THEIR OWN EMPLOYMENT, THEIR PARENTS' EMPLOYMENT, AND THE STUDENTS' INTENTION FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP

This particular article studies if there is a relationship between (a) the students' fathers' current employment, (b) the students' mothers' current employment, (c) the student' own current employment, (d) the students' gender, and (d) the students' intention to become entrepreneurs after they have completed their undergraduate education? The study rejected the first null hypothesis: That there is no statistical difference between these students' fathers' employment-and these students' intention to starting a business once they have completed their undergraduate studies. Likewise, it also invalidated the second null hypothesis: That there is no statistical difference between these students' mothers' employment-and these students' intention to starting a business once they have completed their undergraduate studies. The study also rejected the third null hypothesis: That there is no statistical difference between students' own employment-and their intention to starting a business once they have completed their undergraduate studies. However, the study accepted the fourth null hypothesis: That there is no statistical difference between students' gender-and their intention to starting a business once they have completed their undergraduate studies.
