Abstract
La importancia del emprendimiento para el desarrollo socio-económico de los países es indiscutible, sin embargo, en Bolivia todavía son incipientes los estudios sobre este tema, y más aún como un proceso cognitivo, que inicia con la intención empresarial. El objetivo de este estudio fue explicar la influencia de los valores personales en la actitud e intención empresarial, de una muestra de 190 estudiantes de la carrera de Ingeniería Comercial de la U.S.F.X.CH. La metodología central del estudio consistió en el uso de ecuaciones estructurales ajustadas por mínimos cuadrados parciales (PLS). Se encontró que los valores cumplen un papel muy importante en la formación de las actitudes hacia el emprendimiento, y a través de estas, en las intenciones empresariales de los estudiantes. La principal conclusión reside en considerar la transferencia de valores emprendedores dentro de los programas de formación y apoyo hacia el emprendimiento, para motivar a nivel interno la intención empresarial del estudiante y así promover la creación de más y mejores empresas.

The central methodology of the study consisted in the use of structural equations adjusted by partial least squares (PLS). It was found that values play a very important role in the formation of attitudes towards entrepreneurship, and through them, in the business intentions of students. The main conclusion is to consider the transfer of entrepreneurial values within the programs of training and support to entrepreneurship, to motívate internally the business intention of the student and thus promote the creation of more and better companies.
