Abstract

Objective: The article aims to understand the influence of how attitude (ATT), the perception of country support (PCS) for entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurship self-efficacy (ESE) support entrepreneurial intention (EI) among Venezuelan migrants living in Peru. Research Design & Methods: In total, 305 migrants from Venezuela living in Peru completed the online ques-tionnaire. It contained 21 items that evaluated the variables to explain the EI. In the study, we employed the partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) technique. Findings: We found that ATT (0.591) and PCS for entrepreneurship (0.204) showed a direct and significant influence on ESE, while ESE showed a direct and significant influence (0.823) on the EI. The research model explained 67.7% of the EI. The analysis using bootstrapping technique showed the significance of the path coefficients. Implications & Recommendations: Current research showed the effect of ATT and PCS on ESE, which governments and organizations can use to create plans to promote entrepreneurship among migrants. Contribution & Value Added: Governments can use the study results to develop and improve new regulations to encourage entrepreneurship. The novelty of this study is the use of the PLS-SEM technique. © 2022, Cracow University of Economics. All rights reserved.

2019冠状病毒病大流行期间在秘鲁的委内瑞拉移民及其创业意愿

目的:本文旨在了解生活在秘鲁的委内瑞拉移民的创业态度(ATT)、国家支持(PCS)和创业自我效能感(ESE)对创业意向(EI)的影响。研究设计与方法:共有305名居住在秘鲁的委内瑞拉移民完成了在线问卷调查。它包含21个项目来评估解释EI的变量。在研究中，我们采用偏最小二乘结构方程建模(PLS-SEM)技术。研究发现:创业ATT(0.591)和创业PCS(0.204)对ESE有直接显著影响，ESE对EI有直接显著影响(0.823)。该研究模型解释了67.7%的EI。利用自举技术分析表明了路径系数的显著性。启示与建议:目前的研究显示了ATT和PCS对ESE的影响，政府和组织可以利用这些影响来制定促进移民创业的计划。贡献与增值:政府可以利用研究结果制定和改进鼓励创业的新法规。这项研究的新颖之处在于使用了PLS-SEM技术。©2022，克拉科夫经济大学。版权所有。
