Abstract
Previous studies have suggested that women have fewer entrepreneurial intentions than men, so the number of female entrepreneurs is way less than male entrepreneurs. However, it is a different phenomenon in Indonesia, where the number of female and male entrepreneurs is comparatively equal. Therefore, this study aims to find out which factors cause it (both at the factor and indicator levels along with its attributes) using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The result indicates that both personal attitude and perceived behavioral control (factor level) do have a significant influence on entrepreneurial intentions, along with its indicator level (behavioral beliefs and control beliefs) significantly influencing its factor level, respectively. We also found that both women and men show similar levels of entrepreneurial intentions; their personal attitudes and behavioral beliefs also do not differ. Lastly, we discuss our findings with some reliable sources to reach a final conclusion.
