Young women still have a lower entrepreneurial inclination (EI) than young men in both a Latin society (Spain) and in a Nordic society (Iceland).Our data come from a survey conducted among university students who attended the Complutense University of Madrid and the University of Iceland.After constructing a set of variables and indicators that served as explanatory variables, and after conducting a statistical and regression analysis, this study provides evidence about the determinants of this gender gap in EI.The EI of male students was more sensitive to having higher self-confidence than in the case of female students.In turn, the EI of female students was more sensitive to both positive (enrichment) and negative (conflict) perspectives about the work-family interface than in the case of males.Additionally, the EI of students was positively related with entrepreneurial family antecedents, and with the level of parental income; and it was negatively related with their tolerance for risk.Some cross-cultural differences were also found between the Spanish and Icelandic samples
