*4.1. Contextual Factors*

Table 4 shows the correlations between Factor 1, legal and administrative context, and Factor 2, business and organizational context, with the rest of the factors. These conclusions can be drawn from the data analysis:

	- Resource factors: Funding for entrepreneurship (0.21, significant at the 0.05 level) and Training in entrepreneurship for faculty staff (0.29, significant at the 0.01 level).
	- Project-related factors: Mission and strategy (0.24, significant at the 0.05 level) and policies and procedures (0.32, significant at the 0.05 level).
	- Structural factors: Organisational design (0.22, significant at the 0.05 level).
	- Training process factors: Training and research in entrepreneurship (0.25, significant at the 0.05 level) and extra-curricular training (0.27, significant at the 0.05 level).
	- Resource factors, funding for entrepreneurship (0.24, significant at the 0.05 level) and training in entrepreneurship for faculty staff (0.29, significant at the 0.01 level).
	- Project-related factors: Mission and strategy (0.24, significant at the 0.05 level) and policies and procedures (0.27, significant at the 0.05 level).
	- Structural factors: Organisational design (0.22, significant at the 0.05 level).
	- Training process factors: Training and research in entrepreneurship (0.23, significant at the 0.05 level), extra-curricular training (0.30, significant at the 0.05 level) and internationalisation (0.26, significant at the 0.05 level).

To further the analysis. Student's t-test was used to compare those faculties that were above and below the mean score of these two factors. No significant difference was found between them in terms of their level of development of the remaining factors.



*Sustainability* **2020**, *12*, 842

Based on these data, it can be concluded that the hypothesis H1 that external factors would be associated with and influence the development of internal factors has not been validated, except for the training in entrepreneurship for staff. At first sight, this seems to contradict the hypothesis that was proven in previous studies. However, taking into account the low scores obtained for all factors and variables in the context of this study, it may indicate that it does not have a significant influence on the sample of Spanish universities analysed due to the low degree of support given by them to entrepreneurship. As Spanish universities organise their entrepreneurship activities by relying on their own resources, their entrepreneurial development might be greater if the context were more favourable and supportive, as has been the case in other countries. Only if contextual factors obtained a high score and if this score were not correlated with the development of internal factors could it be stated that such influence between factors does not exist.
