| dc.description.abstract | The aim of this study was to investigate the differences between fathers
and mothers in their views on self and spouse in support given to develop entrepreneurial characteristics in teenage children. The study was conducted among 40
fathers and 77 mothers with children in the age of junior and senior high school.
Results showed that there was a significant difference between views on self and
spouse among mothers, t(76) = 4.08, p < 0.001. Mothers believed that they gave
higher support than their spouse in developing entrepreneurial characteristics in
their children. In the group of fathers, there was no significant difference between
views on self and spouse, t(39) = 0.48, p > 0.05. These findings suggest that
mothers and fathers have different views on self and spouse. Mothers tend to view
themselves as more supportive than their spouse. On the other hand, fathers do not
see themselves as more supportive or less supportive than their spouse. | en_US |
