Factors Shaping the Entrepreneurial Intentions and Behaviours of Ukrainians

Summary/Abstract: In the literature there is a relatively high number of studies on the entrepreneurial intentions and behaviours and characteristics of the selected individual factors, especially entrepreneurial attitudes. However, relatively little time is devoted to the analysis of all individual factors that interact with each other. It is about the interaction of subjective norms, perceived control of behaviour and entrepreneurial attitudes. In I. Ajzen’s Theory of Planned Behaviour (1991) they constitute the base, and maybe also the limit of entrepreneurial intentions, while being under the influence of internal and external conditions of the entrepreneurial process, the fundamental diversity of which applies to national spatial systems, but sometimes also to regional and local ones. The purpose of the study is to identify individual factors shaping the intentions and entrepreneurial behaviours of Ukrainians. An attempt to clarify entrepreneurial attitudes in the context of existing socio-cultural norms in Ukraine against the background of selected European countries was considered to be particularly important. The presented results in various spatial systems reflect the difficult and complex socio-economic and political situation in Ukraine, which can be explained by a number of exo- and endogenous factors, including the strong cultural diversity of the country, the economic condition of Ukrainian families and the attitude of citizens towards the entrepreneurial process.
