Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
A descriptive type of research was conducted to investigate Iranian agricultural experts’ attitudes towards entrepreneurship potential of nanotechnology. The total population was all agricultural experts working in research institutes through Iran. Using Cochran formula, 210 experts were selected based on proportionate random sampling. A questionnaire was developed by the researcher and used to collect data. The dependent variable for this study was experts’ attitude about entrepreneurship potential of nanotechnology which was measured by asking questions in Likert scale. Descriptive statistics were used to describe data and correlation coefficients were used to measure relationships between independent variables and experts’ attitudes towards entrepreneurship potential of nanotechnology. Results showed that there were relationship between attitude of respondents and some independent variables such as age, entrepreneurial spirit and job experience.
