Abstract

Attitudes of undergraduates toward a range of alternative organizational forms are surveyed. Results show that student prefer firms where employees have significant ownership and control. Our findings strongly support the hypothesis of a strong gender effect influencing undergraduates' preferences for different types of firms. Results also indicate the importance of political orientation in influencing respondents' preferences.
