Sažetak
The paper analyses the influence of total early entrepreneurial activity and competitiveness of the economy on real gross domestic product (GDP) per capita in a cross-national perspective by the methods of linear and double logarithmic multiple regression analysis. In order to investigate which model fits the data better, the models are compared in respect of fulfillment of the regression assumptions and quality of the relationship between the dependent and the independent variables. The choice of the functional form of the model is made based on the results of MacKinnon, White and Davidson test and on comparison of coefficients of determination. The results of the analysis show that independent variables have a statistically significant impact on real GDP per capita. The comparison procedure for coefficient of determination results in conclusion that the linear model describes the variations of the real GDP per capita better.
