Gender differences in entrepreneurship behaviour have been extensively studied. This study adopts an intersection between the behavioural and the economic approaches to understand gender differences among students. It has the objective to identify the gender differences in both the entrepreneurial behaviour and entrepreneurial performance of Brazilian higher education students. A quantitative survey was conducted among 1,550 students from two universities. Data was analysed using multi-group structural equations modelling. Results identified gender differences both among entrepreneurial characteristics and in their relationship with performance. This study contributes theoretically and empirically to a better understanding on gender differences within the context of higher education students.

As the earliest measure of social communication in rodents, ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) in response to maternal separation are critical in preclinical research on neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). While sex differences in both USV production and behavioral outcomes are reported, many studies overlook sex as a biological variable in preclinical NDD models. We aimed to evaluate sex differences in USV call parameters and determine if USVs are differently impacted based on sex in the preclinical maternal immune activation (MIA) model.
