Abstract: Most of developing and developed countries realize that a lack of entrepreneurial intention and failure to engage in nascent entrepreneurial behavior can explain a lack of business success. The current study addresses (1) the current knowledge on entrepreneurial intention and nascent entrepreneurial behavior, (2) the areas where empirical research is lacking in entrepreneurial intention and nascent entrepreneurial behavior, (3) the theories used to establish the relationship between entrepreneurial intention, antecedents of entrepreneurial intention, personal factors, contextual factors, and nascent entrepreneurial behavior, and (4) in which context, research has primarily been conducted on entrepreneurial intention and nascent entrepreneurial behavior. As the methodology of the study, inititally articles were reviewed in the literature, followed by a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). To meet the research aims, 185 publications published between 2009 and 2022 were retrieved from six well-accepted databases, and bibliometric analysis was done. The results found that scholarly attention should be given to personal factors, contextual factors, antecedents of entrepreneurial intention, and nascent entrepreneurial behavior rather than entrepreneurial education. The study needed a systematic and empirical investigation combining personal factors, contextual factors, antecedents of entrepreneurial intention, and nascent entrepreneurial behavior with a solid theoretical underpinning.
