Public support and administration barriers towards entrepreneurial intentions of students in Poland

The extant literature on entrepreneurial intentions has examined the relationship between human entrepreneurial activity and entrepreneurship policy, especially in terms of institutional environment and institutionalism or the role of supporting policies. The aim of this article is to empirically verify the impact of perceived public support and institutional barriers on students' entrepreneurial intentions. The article uses the quantitative approach typical for social sciences. Based on a literature review, two hypotheses were retrieved, and then empirically verified. The primary tool was a survey conducted on a relatively large sample of 719 students of seven different universities from Krakow (Poland). The multiple regression was applied as a leading tool for hypotheses verification. The results confirmed that positively perceived public support in favour of entrepreneurship strengthens the young generation's entrepreneurial intentions to start their own business, while negatively perceived administration barriers against entrepreneurship blunts the young generation's entrepreneurial intentions to start their own business. Therefore, this article's contribution to extant literature is the replication of research from well-advanced economies in the discussed scope and its transfer to the realities in Poland. Furthermore, the contribution of this article is a verification of the postulated negative perception of institutional barriers, and not just obstacles related to obtaining financial support, as it is the case in various articles.
