To what extent are PhD students intrapreneurs? A study from a gender perspective

Abstract

Research on intrapreneurial intention (INI) has gone from strength to strength over the past few years. However, some collectives like PhD students have not received the attention they deserve. Accordingly, this study aimed to determine the INI of PhD students from a gender perspective. Their tendency to display innovative and risk-taking behavior was analyzed based on a sample of 393 PhD students. The results evince significant gender differences in this regard.
