Abstract
The difference in the behaviour of women and men has been a topic of research with increasing emphasis in recent years. The study was conducted with samples of people from 16 Latin American countries, using correlations and factor analysis to explore relationships between the 4 profiles of economic human action, using a praxeometric test called HAT, with categorisation between women and men. Results evidenced that women tend to act economically with a profile towards innovation and description of the current situation through reflective appraisal and emotional intelligence.
Key words: Human action, economic behaviour, praxeology, rationality, women, men.
