Resumen
TAPIA MEJIA, Erik y SANCHEZ OLARTE, Josset. Influence of Migratory Factors on Entrepreneurial Intentions. An Application of The Theory of Planned Behavior in Returned Migrants. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2021, vol.42, n.166, pp.47-67. Epub 01-Ago-2022. ISSN 2448-7554. https://doi.org/10.24901/rehs.v42i166.856.
Objective
to employ the Theory of Planned Behavior to analyze the influence of factors related to migration (e.g., duration of stay in the destination country, type of return, savings, remittances) on attitudes towards behavior, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and the entrepreneurial intentions of return migrants in the state of Puebla, Mexico.
Design, methodology, or approach
the Structural Equation Model was used to establish and evaluate the causal relationship of these migratory factors with the variables of the Theory of Planned Behavior.
Results
the migratory factors were positively related to the constructs of the Theory of Planned Behavior. The influence of these factors on the construct of Subjective Norms stands out.
Limitations or implications
results should be taken with caution, since the constructs of the Theory of Planned Behavior behave differently in distinct sociocultural settings, and the construct of migratory factors is no exception.
Originality or value
this is a pioneering study that examines the entrepreneurial intentions of return migrants using the Theory of Planned Behavior. In addition, it provides novel information for the development of new and better government programs or public policies for labor reinsertion and business creation in expelling countries.
Findings or conclusions
four variables were identified that positively impact the entrepreneurial intentions of this population sector, but the effects of type of return and migratory experience stand out. These findings provide information that can improve our understanding of the entrepreneurial behavior of return migrants.
