Metric behavior on evaluation of educaction in entrepreneurship

Abstract

This article aimed to show the results of a systematic map on the evaluation of entrepreneurship education. The objective was to identify the most recent publications on the subject, which were published in journals indexed in Scopus and Web of Science databases. A systematic mapping was developed following the methodology of Petersen et al. (2008). We analyzed 108 articles found in Scopus and Web of Science databases from 2013 to 2017. Authors, journals, research lines and main results were some of the indicators that were taken into account in analyzing the studies. It was found that there are few articles that study the evaluation of entrepreneurship education, within an academic context. Most of them have been published in British journals of closed-access. As for the authors, there are few specialists in the subject who have published more than one article on the subject. Most of these authors are from Western Europe and North America. Finally, the research lines turned out to be quite varied; as well as the main findings. Most of the studies focused on higher education levels in the business area.
