Abstract: Purpose: This study is to examine the relationship between disciplined mind characteristics and entrepreneurial tendencies of fourth grade primary school students.

The research sample consisted of 576 fourth grade primary school students studying at state schools during the 2022-2023 school year.

Gender, magazines read, TV programmes watched, computer games played, reading time, graduation status of parents, occupation status of parents are among the factors affecting the significant relationship. Highlights: The study determined that the relationship between disciplined mind and entrepreneurial tendencies could be evaluated from primary school onwards, and that certain variables, including gender, family education level, and reading habits, had an effect on the situation.
