Özet:

 

In this study, we analyze young people’s attitudes towards entrepreneurship in the  Helsinki-Uusimaa region of Finland. First, our theoretical framework links with  attitude research, in particular, Ajzen’s theory of planned behavior. Our second  perspective derives from the theory of representations. Third, our analysis is based  on discussions of the welfare state and democratic values. We ask what social  psychological factors explain young people’s entrepreneurial intentions. Survey  data (N=873) was collected in electronic format from secondary and vocational  schools. The questions were mainly multiple choice Likert-scale questions. The  analysis was undertaken using simple statistical methods. Our results demonstrate  that the relationship between social values, representations concerning  entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurial intention is complex in the Finnish context.  While we further argue that the theory of planned behavior is valid in this  instance, the representations and social values serve to explain entrepreneurial  intention only weakly.
