The basic assumption of the article is that entrepreneurship could be best explained on the ground of psychological theories dealing with creativity. Therefore, the author’s model of „The Style of Creative Behavior” measured by „The Creative Behavior Questionnaire” (CBQ) was used as the main theoretical framework in three studies presented. Other models were also used: „The Formal Characteristic of Behavior – Temperament Inventory” by J. Strelau, „Match Problems II” (Adaptive Flexibility of Thinking) by J. P. Guilford, as well as D. C. McClelland’s model of the need of achievement, measured by „Widerszal-Bazyl Questionnaire of Motivation”. The four factors, out of five, from the CBQ: The Strength of ego, Self-realization, Flexibility of cognitive system, and Internal locus of evaluation proved to be the most efficient in discriminating entrepreneurs and effective managers from control groups – unemployed people, and group of administrative workers. This corroborates the results obtained in previous author’s research.
