Human capital represents a crucial component for each enterprise, acting as a competitive advantage in achieving favorable outcomes. This study puts forward a hypothesis regarding the influence of factors causal to the emergent property on the self-assessment of firm-specific human capital within specific segments (individual categories) of the employed population, including business structure leaders, entrepreneurs, and employees. To measure firm-specific human capital, we employ a methodology adapted by the team of authors led by G.F. Romashkina from A. Moses’ research on human capital. The findings from our tests establish that social behavior factors, alongside traditional ones, significantly influence the self-assessment of firm-specific human capital, serving as the underlying conditions for the emergence effect.
