Abstract
This paper aims to present a robust view of the research focus of academic scholars on women entrepreneurship intentions over the last four decades by applying a scientometric approach that integrates thematic analysis and the Nominal Group Technique (NGT). The scientometric analysis of articles was conducted at three levels, i.e., micro, meso, and macro levels through article level, author level, and journal level analysis, respectively. Crucial themes in the field of entrepreneurial intentions of women were found through co-occurrence analysis. The consistency of themes was evaluated across the three levels. Themes consistent across all levels, i.e., Country/Place Centric, Gender Specific, Education Related, Tool Centric, Theory Centric, Motivation Centric, Self-efficacy, Entrepreneurialism, and Personal Factors, were considered to be more impactful because of their importance at all levels. The process of NGT was then carried out to identify the most impactful factors from the identified themes. The most impactful factors identified in the study were attitude, self-efficacy, motivation, role models, culture, politics, and entrepreneurial education. The findings of the study will help in shaping future policies by the government in order to meet the needs of potential women entrepreneurs. To the best of the authors' knowledge, no such study across the levels of research has been conducted in the domain of women entrepreneurship.
