Summary/Abstract: The classic search for signs of a crisis on the real economy sphere focuses on the observation of trade volume, production and domestic sales, or change of jobs. In a situation when the crisis is regarded as a crisis of confidence, it seems more appropriate to test the mood among businesses and learn their views concerning the future situation. The article presents the results of studies conducted among the entrepreneurs of West Pomeranian voivodeship against the background of similar nationwide research of private research centres. Structural and time analysis of given answers shows a growing conviction of entrepreneurs about the continuation of crisis impact on enterprises activity which creates a completely different pic¬ture compared to that presented in media, the statements of people in power and the announce¬ments of authorities.
