Confirmatory Factor Analysis, Migration, Entrepreneurship, Observed Model, Theoretical ModelAbstract
The relationship between migration and entrepreneurship is established andconsolidated in the context of nearshoring. In this sense, this work aimed to contrast the theory with an observable model. A cross-sectional, correlational, and psychometric study was conducted with 100 students selected for their institution's commitment to forming intellectual and entrepreneurial capital. The results confirm a three-dimensional structure related to migration, entrepreneurship, and nearshoring. About the state of the art where opportunism is highlighted as a factor of innovation, this work warns of the prevalence of the dimension related to nearshoring as a factor that explains the highest percentage of explained variance.
