Entrepreneurial Intention Questionnaire

The Entrepreneurial Intention Questionnaire (EIQ) is a 6-item self-report instrument designed to measure an individual's intention to start a new business. Developed by Liñán and Chen in 2009, it is grounded in the Theory of Planned Behavior and has become widely used across entrepreneurship research and education. The scale captures readiness and commitment to pursuing entrepreneurial ventures.
