Abstract
La investigación realizada se plantea como objetivo identificar los factores que determinan la intención emprendedora en jóvenes universitarios. Para su análisis, se utilizó el método de ecuaciones estructurales. Los resultados muestran que la actitud, el control conductual percibido y la exposición a entornos de emprendimiento y/o empresariales, se asocian significativamente con la intención emprendedora. También, que el efecto de la formación en emprendimiento es indirecto y el de la norma subjetiva resultó ser no significativo. Como limitaciones, se señalan el formular escalas con mayor poder explicativo para medir la formación y la norma subjetiva; y el realizar estudios longitudinales. La originalidad del trabajo radica en la adición de dos nuevos constructos al Modelo de Ajzen (1991), la formación y la exposición a entornos de emprendimiento y/o empresariales. Los hallazgos alcanzados, contribuyen al conocimiento en torno al emprendimiento y sirven de soporte para establecer políticas y estrategias de actuación orientadas a su fortalecimiento.
The research aims to identify the factors that affect entrepreneurial intention in university students. The analysis method used was structural equation modelling (SEM). The results show that entrepreneurial intention is influenced by attitudes, perceived behavioral control and entrepreneurial and business environment exposition. Nevertheless, the effect of entrepreneurship training is indirect and the subjective norm proved to be non-significant. As limitations, the need to build more robust scales to measure training and subjective norm, and to conduct longitudinal studies are noted. The originality of the work lies in the addition of two new constructs to Ajzen's Model (1991): training and exposure to entrepreneurial and / or business environments. The findings reached contribute to the knowledge about entrepreneurship and support the establishment of policies and action strategies aimed at strengthening entrepreneurship.
