Given that the Escala de Orientación Emprendedora - Entrepreneurial Orientation Scale (EOE) is one of the few instruments that enable the assessment of entrepreneurial orientation among students, the first aim of the present study was to adapt it to Basque and validate it in that language (EOE-E). The second aim was to examine the relationship of entrepreneurial orientation with gender and academic performance. The sample comprised 735 students in vocational training. In relation to the first aim, the Confirmatory Factor Analysis corroborated the six-factor structure of the original questionnaire, presenting acceptable internal consistency and stability over time indexes. Evidence of convergent validity and evidence of validity based on relations with other variables, such as self-efficacy and personal initiative was also obtained. The results therefore confirm that evidence was obtained of validity and reliability of the instrument for assessing entrepreneurial orientation among students in vocational training. In terms of the second aim, men were found to have higher mean scores than women for competitiveness, whereas women scored higher than men for learning orientation. Furthermore, in comparison with their lower-performing counterparts, students with better academic grades scored higher for innovativeness, proactiveness, achievement orientation and learning orientation. 2023 artículo científico 1139-613X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=70675286013 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/706/70675286013/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/706/70675286013/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/706/70675286013/70675286013.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/706/70675286013/movil https://doi.org/10.5944/educxx1.32994 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=706 Educación XX1 application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia Educación XX1 (España) Num.2 Vol.26 |
