우리나라 전체 자영업자에서 청년 자영업자의 비율은 감소하고, 중장년 자영업자의 비율이 증가하고 있다. 또한 청년층 자영업의 평균 지속기간은 37개월로 대략 3년의 자영업 유지기간을 보이고 있으나, 청년 자영업자 40% 정도는 2년 이내에 자영업에서 이탈하는 것으로 나타났다. 청년자영업자 사업의 짧은 지속 기간과 높은 이탈률에도 불구하고, 우리나라의 자영업 시장구조가 50~60대 중장년층을 중심으로 형성되어 있기 때문에 20~30대 청년층의 경우 분석 및 논의 대상에서 큰 비중을 차지하지 못하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 청년 자영업자의 미래지향적이며, 창조적인 아이디어를 갖고 적극적으로 실행해보고자 하는 성향과 위험을 감수하는 기업가정신이 사업성과에 영향을 미칠 것이라는 상황에 주목하였으며, 이러한 상황에서 개인의 '자기효능감, 낙관주의, 복원력, 희망'과 같은 긍정심리자본이 매개한다고 가정하고 연구모형을 설정하였다. 이를 위해 기업가정신의 구성요소인 '혁신성, 진취성, 위험감수성'을 독립변수로, '균형성과관리(BSC)의 재무적 관점, 고객 관점, 내부 프로세스 관점, 학습과 성장 관점'을 도입한 사업성과를 종속변수로 설정하였다. 또한 선행연구를 기반으로 긍정심리자본을 매개변수로 채택하여 변수 간의 관계를 실증적 분석을 통하여 검증하고자 한다.
