A room of her own: does the improvement of gender role attitude promote rural mothers’ entrepreneurship?—Evidence from China

The study also finds that the entrepreneurial behavior of rural mothers has a spillover effect. Rural mothers provide more employment opportunities for other women through their entrepreneurial activities. Not only expands the research boundary of women's entrepreneurship and the application scope of entrepreneurship theories, but also explores the internal mechanism through which gender role attitudes influence rural mothers' entrepreneurship.

Abstract

The study also finds that the entrepreneurial behavior of rural mothers has a spillover effect. Rural mothers provide more employment opportunities for other women through their entrepreneurial activities. Not only expands the research boundary of women's entrepreneurship and the application scope of entrepreneurship theories, but also explores the internal mechanism through which gender role attitudes influence rural mothers' entrepreneurship.
