Abstract
Immigrant entrepreneurship is widely studied, yet little is known about factors that contribute to entrepreneurial intention among young second-generation immigrants. This study analyzes which factors predict emergent adults’ entrepreneurial intention to start a business using a sample of 260 second‐generation Moroccan- and Turkish-Dutch immigrant students in the Netherlands. Experienced discrimination was included as a negative factor and three attitudinal antecedents specified in Ajzen’s (1991) Theory of Planned Behavior, viz., attitudes towards behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control, as positive factors. Experienced discrimination and perceived behavioral control positively predicted entrepreneurial intention. Attitude towards behavior and subjective norms did not contribute to the prediction of entrepreneurial intention.
