Abstract

This community service program aims to improve adolescent entrepreneurial self-belief through role modeling and psychopedagogical learning in Sukamaju Village, Depok City. The activity was conducted in a single meeting using interactive lectures, simulation exercises, and pre- and post-test evaluations. Sixteen adolescents aged 14–19 participated in the activity, which featured local young entrepreneurs as role models. The results showed an increase in the average entrepreneurial self-belief score from 39.00 in the pre-test to 41.92 in the post-test, a 2.92-point increase. This increase reflects the effectiveness of the program in fostering self-confidence, the courage to innovate, and entrepreneurial motivation among adolescents. The results showed that observing role models can strengthen self-confidence through vicarious experiences and positive feedback. This community service training demonstrated that role-modeling-based activities can be an effective and low-cost strategy for strengthening adolescent entrepreneurial mindsets at the community level. Further mentoring-based programs are needed to ensure sustainable results and a tangible impact on adolescent entrepreneurial behavior.
