摘要

本研究的目的是整合计划行为理论和跨理论模型来预测加纳的青年创业行为。该研究采用问卷调查的方式，采用目的性和便捷性抽样技术，对600名失业青年进行了数据收集。使用结构方程模型分析了假设的关系。研究发现，态度和主观意愿对创业意向有显著影响，而创业意向、态度和主观规范对青年创业行为有显著影响。通过整合两种行为改变理论来理解青年的创业意向，本研究从发展中国家的角度对这一现象提供了更深入的理论理解，从而有助于知识的积累。虽然这两种理论都能预测青年创业行为，但自我重评的中介效应只能解释38%的实际创业行为方差。未来的研究可以探索其他环境因素的中介或调节作用。

Understanding entrepreneurship behaviour among the youth: a behavioural change theory perspective

The aim of the study is to integrate the theory of planned behaviour and transtheoretical model to predict youth entrepreneurship behaviour in Ghana. The study employed questionnaires to collect data from 600 unemployed youths using purposive and convenience sampling techniques. The hypothesised relationships were analysed using structural equation modelling. Findings reveal that attitude and PBC strongly influence entrepreneurial intention whilst entrepreneurial intention, attitude and subjective norms have significant influence on youth entrepreneurship behaviour. By integrating two behavioural change theories to understand the entrepreneurial intention of the youth, the study contributes to knowledge by providing a deeper theoretical understanding of the phenomenon from a developing country context. Although the two theories were able to predict youth entrepreneurship behaviour, the mediation effect of self-reevaluation only explained 38% of the variance in actual entrepreneurship behaviour. Future studies could explore the mediation or moderation roles of other environmental factors.
