The present research aims to examine the entrepreneurial profiles of Turkish entrepreneurs and its relation between motivational persistence and intolerance to uncertainty. However, there are previous studies that focus on Commercial, Social and Strategic Entrepreneurship, no such study has examined all three profiles at the same time. For this reason, it is considered necessary to develop a valid and reliable scale to measure for those entrepreneurial profiles. The relevant literature has been collected to this study. Furthermore, The methodology of the study adopts a scale of 30 items. The participants of the research constitute a total of 298 Turkish entrepreneurs. Exploratory factor analysis, Confirmatory factor analysis and Reliability analysis are used to examine the structure of the scale. Pearson Correlation Analysis and Hierarchical Linear Regression Analysis are used to test the hypotheses of the study. Through the results of exploratory factor analysis, a construct with 26 items and 3 factors, named as “Commercial Entrepreneurs”, “Social Entrepreneurs” and “Strategic Entrepreneurs”, have been achieved according to scope of the study. It is revealed that the Commercial Entrepreneurship profile is not predicted by intolerance to uncertainty. However, it has been determined that the profile of Social Entrepreneurship and Strategic Entrepreneurship is predicted by both motivational persistence and intolerance to uncertainty. Besides, it has been determined that most of the individuals show the characteristics of Strategic Entrepreneurship (n = 214), Social Entrepreneurship (n = 49) and Commercial Entrepreneurship (n = 35).

Niniejsze badanie ma na celu zbadanie profili przedsiębiorczości tureckich przedsiębiorców i ich związku między wytrwałością motywacyjną a nietolerancją niepewności. Istnieją jednak wcześniejsze badania, które koncentrują się na przedsiębiorczości komercyjnej, społecznej i strategicznej, żadne takie badanie nie obejmowało wszystkich trzech profili jednocześnie. Z tego powodu uważa się za konieczne opracowanie ważnej i wiarygodnej skali do pomiaru tych profili przedsiębiorczości. Do tego badania zebrano odpowiednią literaturę. Ponadto metodologia badania przyjmuje skalę 30 pozycji. W badaniu wzięło udział łącznie 298 tureckich przedsiębiorców. Eksploracyjna analiza czynnikowa, konfirmacyjna analiza czynnikowa i analiza rzetelności służą do badania struktury skali. Analiza korelacji Pearsona i hierarchiczna analiza regresji liniowej służą do testowania hipotez badania. Dzięki wynikom eksploracyjnej analizy czynnikowej, zgodnie z zakresem badania, uzyskano konstrukcję z 26 pozycjami i 3 czynnikami, nazwaną „Przedsiębiorcami handlowymi”, „Przedsiębiorcami społecznymi” i „Przedsiębiorcami strategicznymi”. Okazuje się, że profil przedsiębiorczości komercyjnej nie jest przewidywany przez nietolerancję niepewności. Ustalono jednak, że profil przedsiębiorczości społecznej i przedsiębiorczości strategicznej jest przewidywany zarówno przez wytrwałość motywacyjną, jak i nietolerancję niepewności. Poza tym stwierdzono, że większość osób posiada cechy przedsiębiorczości strategicznej (n = 214), przedsiębiorczości społecznej (n = 49) i przedsiębiorczości komercyjnej (n = 35).
