“…In the case of the third hypotheses (H 3 ), it should be noted that there was a statistically significant difference between the assessment of the respondents' own entrepreneurial abilities (p < 0 .0001), which are more often declared by students from Ukraine (85 .61%) than those from Poland (67 .5%) . This is confirmed by other studies (Halkiv and Ziemiański 2022) . A statistically significant difference was also identified between taking up employment during studies (p < 0 .0001), both in situations when the students were forced to do so by life circumstances and when they did not have to do so (50 .00% from Poland 50 .00% and 30 .30% from Ukraine) .…”

“…Although help from family members or friends in running a business is more often declared by students from Ukraine (53 .85%) than from Poland (46 .15%), this difference is not statistically significant (p = 0 .2436) . The results of other studies have been inconclusive in this regard and have often led to different results (Halkiv and Ziemiański 2022;Kramarz, Dębski, and Luty 2019, 33) .…”
