Sažetak

The aim of this research was to examine predictive factors of
entrepreneurial orientation of students in transitional, social, and
economic contexts. Attitudes towards work, value orientations,
gender, and the entrepreneurial experience of the father and the
mother of the respondents were examined as predictor variables.
The sample comprised 220 students from both genders with an
average age of 21.57 years. The results indicate that, in all three
measured components, young men have a more pronounced
entrepreneurial orientation compared to young women. Attitudes
towards work and organizational values were shown to correlate
significantly with entrepreneurial orientation. Experiencing work
as an opportunity for personal fulfilment (b ¼ 0.420, sig <0.001),
autocratic value orientations (b ¼ 0.269, sig <0.05), and the entrepreneurship of the father were distinguished as significant predictors of entrepreneurial orientation on the total sample (b ¼ 0.211,
sig <0.001), as well as on the subsample of young women
(b ¼ 0.283, sig <0.05). The results of this research indicate the
complexity of relationships between the examined factors and
entrepreneurial orientation, the conversance of which provides
the basis for conceptualizing the entrepreneurial socialization of
young people in a particular social and economic context.
