title = {Family business experience and the probability of starting a venture: gender differences in Poland},
year = {2018},
note = {The aim of this study is to analyse whether the experience of working
in a family member’s business is related differently to the assessed
probabilities of men and women starting their own new venture in the
future. The research is conducted on a sample of 334 Polish
undergraduate students. Poland is an efficiency-driven European
economy with a substantial gender gap in entrepreneurship. The results
obtained indicate that the relationship studied differs significantly
across gender. Women assess their probability of starting their own
ventures as lower than men do. This difference is only found among
those with experience gained in a family member’s business. Men and
women without such experience do not differ in their assessments. Our
findings indicate that the mere inclusion of women in a family’s
business activities may not be sufficient to reduce the gender gap.},
