FACTORS THAT CONTROL ENTREPRENEURIAL BEHAVIOR - PERCEPTION OF YOUTH IN REPUBLIC OF NORTH MACEDONIA

Taking into account that young people according to their age and interests differ from others, it is the interest of each country to identify those factors that motivate them in order to have a positive impact on the economy. For this purpose, it is important to know the perception of young people about the environmental factors (available resources, skills, opportunities etc.) that can facilitate or even complicate the entrepreneurial behaviour. The paper relates to the theoretical postulates of Theory of Planned Behaviour and provides set of determinants from which young people should recognize those who have the greatest importance for them. The conclusions are based on primary data obtained from empirical research conducted in Republic of North Macedonia among young students aged 18 to 29 years. The paper is also important because of the opportunities it opens for future research aimed at examining the quality of identified factors, opportunities for their improvement, comparative analyzes to other countries etc.
