LIMA DIRCEU DA SILVA Administración y Contabilidad Religion Entrepreneurship Planned behavior Religious beliefs Entrepreneurial intention Purpose: To investigate the relationship between religious beliefs and the constructs of the Theory of Planned Behavior in entrepreneurial intention.Originality/value: The article stands out by promoting the understanding of entrepreneurship from the Theory of Planned Behavior proposed by Ajzen (1991), aligning it with religious beliefs.Design/methodology/approach: It is an exploratory and descriptive study, of a quantitative nature. The survey method was used to collect the data, in which a sample of 448 students from the Business Administration courses at two public universities in the northeast of Brazil was obtained. Structural Equation Modeling was used to treat and analyze the data.Findings: The results demonstrated that personal attitude, perceived control, and religious beliefs influence the entrepreneurial intention of university students, which did not occur with subjective norms. However, subjective norms influenced the personal attitude and perceived control of university students. The university students presented a predisposition to entrepreneurship and recognized that they have the necessary skills to create a business. However, the choice to become an entre preneur may not be motivated directly by the expectation of its social referents. Moreover, university students did not perceive the influence of religious beliefs in the manifestation of their behavior, because vocation and prosocial motivation are far from the environmental context in which university students are inserted or because they are not practicing a religion that fosters such beliefs. 2020 artículo científico 1518-6776 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=195463513003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1954/195463513003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1954/195463513003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1954/195463513003/195463513003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1954/195463513003/movil 10.1590/1678-6971/eRAMG200022 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1954 RAM.
