摘要：
PURPOSE: To examine the mediating role of personal initiative in the relationship between minority status and selfemployment among self-employed women in Uganda. METHODS: The paper adapts a cross-sectional survey design to collect data from 203 self-employed women, and tests the hypothesis using partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). FINDINGS: Findings indicate a partial mediating role of personal initiative in the relationship between minority status and self-employment. IMPLICATION: Results provide useful insights into the role of personal initiative in self-employment as well as enhancing the ability of minority women to start enterprises for their survival.
