Development and initial psychometric validation of a multidimensional scale for assessing entrepreneurial competence in primary education teachers

A study conducted in Castilla-La Mancha, Spain, aimed to develop and validate a new psychometric scale to assess entrepreneurial competence specifically among primary education teachers. This initiative addresses a gap in existing instruments, which have largely focused on entrepreneurial behavior rather than competence, despite the recognized importance of teachers in fostering entrepreneurship education.

The development of validated instruments to measure entrepreneurial competence in primary educators is critical for effectively integrating and assessing entrepreneurship education. This allows for targeted professional development and curriculum design, directly impacting the quality and relevance of education provided to future generations.

Entrepreneurial competence is identified as a critical skill for addressing contemporary societal challenges.
