Abstract

This study is to identify the effect of seniors in their 40s and 50s on their entrepreneurial intentions through attitude on entrepreneurship, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control by utilizing the integrated model of the theory of planned behavior and self-determination theory. Also, in this process, we tried to analyze moderating effect of entrepreneurship education for seniors. An online survey was conducted for seniors in their 40s and 50s living in Seoul and Gyeonggi province, out of the total 284 questionnaire responses, 243 valid questionnaires were used in the study. Research analysis utilized SPSS 24, AMOS 23 structural equation model and Professor Hayes' Process 3.4 to analyze moderating effect. The results of the study were summarized as follows. First, autonomous motivation had a positive influence on attitude toward entrepreneurship, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control. But controlled motivation didn't have the significant influence on attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control. Second, attitude toward entrepreneurship, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control had positive influence on entrepreneurship intention. Third, as a result of analyzing moderating effect of entrepreneurship education for seniors, the significant moderating effect was verified between attitude and entrepreneurship intention. Also the significant moderating effect was verified between subjective norms and entrepreneurship intention. On the other hand, no significant moderating effect was proved between perceived behavioral control and entrepreneurship intention. The implication of this study is that for retired seniors planning to enter into entrepreneurship, the result can contribute to the development of a entrepreneurship support program that can increase new startup creation, survival and sucess by diagnosing autonomous and controlled motivation for entrepreneurship. In addition, by providing entrepreneurship education as well as re-employment training in the senior outplacement program, the study can contribute to widening the opportunities for seniors to second career after retirement.

본 연구는 계획된 행동이론과 자기결정 이론의 통합모델을 활용하여 40대와 50대 시니어들의 창업 동기가 창업에 대한 태도, 주관적 규범, 지각된 행동통제를 거쳐서 창업 의도에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 또한 이 과정에서 시니어 대상 창업 교육이 유의한 조절역할을 하는지 확인하고자 하였다. 서울, 경기 지역에 거주하는 40대, 50대 시니어들을 대상으로 설문조사를 하여 총 284개의 설문 응답 중 243개의 유효한 설문지를 연구에 사용하였다. 연구분석은 SPSS 24, AMOS 23 구조방정식, 조절효과 분석을 위한 Hayes 교수의 Process 3.4를 활용하였다. 연구 결과 내적 동기는 창업에 대한 태도, 주관적 규범, 지각된 행동통제에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 외적 동기는 유의한 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 창업에 대한 태도, 주관적 규범, 지각된 행동통제는 창업 의도에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 창업교육의 조절효과는 창업에 대한 태도가 창업 의도에 미치는 영향에는 유의한 정(+)의 조절효과가 나타났고, 창업에 대한 주관적 규범이 창업 의도에 미치는 영향에는 유의한 부(-)의 조절효과가 나타난 반면, 창업에 대한 지각된 행동통제가 창업 의도에 미치는 영향에는 조절효과가 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 시사점은 퇴직한 시니어들이 창업에 뛰어들고 있는데, 창업을 하고자 하는 내적 동기와 외적 동기를 진단함으로써 창업의 성공 가능성을 높일 수 있는 창업 지원 프로그램 기획 및 개발에 기여할 수 있다. 또한 시니어 대상 아웃플레이스먼트 프로그램에 재취업 교육뿐 아니라 창업 교육을 병행함으로써, 시니어들의 퇴직 이후의 인생 이모작 기회를 넓혀주는데 기여할 수 있다.
