Abstract

Entrepreneurship has become an important pathway for addressing graduate unemployment while fostering innovation, job creation, and economic resilience. This study examines the direct and indirect effects of family support, entrepreneurial experience, and risk-taking propensity on entrepreneurial success, with motivation serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative explanatory approach was employed using survey data collected from 97 respondents selected through proportional random sampling. The analysis focuses on understanding how personal, experiential, and social factors contribute to entrepreneurial success both directly and through motivational mechanisms. The findings indicate that family support, entrepreneurial experience, and risk-taking propensity have significant positive effects on entrepreneurial success, both independently and indirectly through motivation. The results further suggest that motivation functions as an important psychological driver that strengthens the contribution of family encouragement, prior entrepreneurial exposure, and willingness to take risks to business success. These findings imply that entrepreneurial success is not shaped solely by technical capability or prior experience, but also by the presence of supportive social environments and strong internal motivation. This study highlights the importance of integrating entrepreneurial development programs with efforts to strengthen motivation, practical experience, and supportive ecosystems. The findings provide practical implications for higher education institutions and entrepreneurship development programs in designing interventions that better prepare emerging entrepreneurs for sustainable business achievement.

Abstract

Skill acquisition programs and entrepreneurial development efforts for adolescents in Anambra State, Nigeria, seek to equip young individuals with practical skills and business knowledge to foster self-reliance, economic growth, and employment prospects. The research examined the impact of a skill acquisition program on entrepreneurial development among youth in Anambra State, Nigeria. A descriptive survey research design was employed to perform the study. The entire population comprises 3,180 youths. The statistical formula developed by Taro Yamane in 1967 was utilized to ascertain a sample size of 355. Data analysis and hypothesis testing were conducted using Multiple Regression analysis and descriptive statistics facilitated by SPSS version 23, which determined the degree of link between the independent and dependent variables of the study. The findings indicated a substantial positive correlation between technical skills and youth empowerment in relation to entrepreneurial development among youths in Anambra State, Nigeria. The report advised that the government at all levels should enhance efforts to improve technical skill education and training in the state. This can be accomplished by establishing well-equipped skill training centres in the state, financed by a designated special intervention budget for the program.

Abstract

Unemployment remains a persistent challenge in developing economies, making entrepreneurship an increasingly important pathway for job creation, economic participation, and student career development. This study examines the direct and indirect effects of entrepreneurial knowledge and learning motivation on entrepreneurial intention, with entrepreneurial motivation positioned as a mediating variable. Using a quantitative explanatory design, data were collected from 152 students of the Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Sebelas Maret, through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics and path analysis with SPSS version 26. The findings show that learning motivation and entrepreneurial motivation have positive and significant effects on entrepreneurial intention, while entrepreneurial knowledge has a positive but statistically non-significant direct effect on entrepreneurial intention. Entrepreneurial knowledge and learning motivation were also found to have positive effects on entrepreneurial motivation, which subsequently strengthens students’ entrepreneurial intention. These results indicate that entrepreneurial intention is not shaped solely by cognitive understanding of entrepreneurship, but also by students’ motivation to learn and their internal motivation to engage in entrepreneurial activity. The study highlights the importance of entrepreneurship education that integrates knowledge development, motivational support, and practice-oriented learning experiences to strengthen students’ readiness to pursue entrepreneurship as a career option.

Abstract

Entrepreneurship education has become an important strategy in developing entrepreneurial interest among Generation Z, particularly in vocational education environments that prepare students to face dynamic economic and business challenges. This study aims to examine the effect of entrepreneurship education on Generation Z’s entrepreneurial interest at SMK Negeri 4 Makassar using a True Experimental Design with a Post-Test-Only Control-Group Design approach. The study involved 40 students divided into an experimental group and a control group, with each group consisting of 20 respondents. The experimental group received entrepreneurship learning through an experiential-based approach, while the control group received conventional learning methods. Data were collected through questionnaires, observation, and documentation, and were analyzed using validity, reliability, normality, homogeneity, and t-test analyses. The findings indicate that entrepreneurship education has a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial interest among Generation Z students. The experimental group demonstrated a higher increase in entrepreneurial interest compared to the control group after the learning intervention was implemented. The results also confirmed that the research instruments were valid and reliable, while the data fulfilled the assumptions of normality and homogeneity. The t-test analysis further demonstrated a statistically significant difference between both groups. This study contributes to the entrepreneurship education literature by providing empirical evidence through a true experimental approach, which remains relatively limited in previous studies. The findings imply that experiential entrepreneurship education can strengthen students’ motivation, confidence, and readiness to engage in entrepreneurial activities in the digital era.

Abstract

This study examines the effects of creativity, environment, and capital on entrepreneurial intention, with motivation serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed using survey data collected through questionnaires distributed to respondents selected by proportional random sampling. The study involved 109 respondents drawn from the target population in a higher education context. The data were analyzed to assess both the direct and indirect relationships among the proposed variables. The findings indicate that motivation has a significant direct effect on entrepreneurial intention and functions as the main mediating variable in the model. Creativity has a positive effect on motivation and contributes substantially to entrepreneurial intention through motivation. The environment also shows the strongest positive contribution to both motivation and entrepreneurial intention, while the effect of capital on entrepreneurial intention appears weaker than the other predictors. Overall, the model explains a substantial proportion of the variance in entrepreneurial intention, highlighting the central role of motivation in connecting individual, environmental, and resource-related factors to entrepreneurial outcomes. These findings suggest that efforts to strengthen entrepreneurial intention should not focus solely on financial resources, but also on fostering creativity, supportive environments, and stronger motivational readiness. The study offers practical implications for higher education institutions in designing entrepreneurship development programs that integrate personal capability, environmental support, and motivational reinforcement.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial motivation among Generation Alpha in Indonesia by incorporating entrepreneur mindset as a mediating variable. The topic is important due to the growing role of younger generations in the digital economy and the increasing need to develop entrepreneurial competencies from an early age. This study employed a quantitative research approach with 700 Generation Alpha respondents selected using purposive sampling techniques. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS version 3. The findings indicate that entrepreneurship education has a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial motivation and entrepreneur mindset among Generation Alpha in Indonesia. Entrepreneurial motivation also positively influences entrepreneur mindset. In addition, entrepreneur mindset significantly mediates the relationship between entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial motivation. The results suggest that entrepreneurship education contributes not only to increasing entrepreneurial motivation but also to strengthening entrepreneurial thinking patterns among younger generations. This study highlights the importance of support from educational institutions, families, and government in fostering entrepreneurial competencies and motivation among Generation Alpha. The findings provide both theoretical and practical contributions to the development of entrepreneurship education in Indonesia.

Abstract

Digital entrepreneurship education is considered important for enhancing the entrepreneurial creativity and digital capabilities of Generation Z in promoting entrepreneurial activities through social media platforms. This study aims to analyze the effect of digital entrepreneurship education on the creativity of Generation Z in promoting businesses through social media, with entrepreneurial intuition serving as a mediating variable. This study employed a quantitative research approach using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) as the analytical technique. Data were collected through questionnaire distribution involving 700 Generation Z respondents in Indonesia. The findings indicate that digital entrepreneurship education, social media utilization, and entrepreneurial intuition have positive and significant effects on entrepreneurial creativity among Generation Z entrepreneurs in promoting businesses through social media. The results also reveal that entrepreneurial intuition and social media play important mediating roles in strengthening the relationship between digital entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial creativity. These findings suggest that digital entrepreneurship education contributes not only to improving entrepreneurial knowledge but also to strengthening creativity, business intuition, and digital promotional capabilities among young entrepreneurs. Therefore, the development of practical entrepreneurship curricula integrated with social media utilization and entrepreneurial intuition training is essential to support the growth of innovative and competitive young entrepreneurs in the digital era.

Abstract

Unemployment remains a persistent challenge in developing economies and has increased the importance of entrepreneurship as a pathway for job creation and economic participation. This study examines the direct and indirect effects of need for achievement and locus of control on entrepreneurial intention, with entrepreneurial attitude serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative explanatory approach was employed to analyze the relationships among the proposed variables. The study involved 103 respondents selected through proportional random sampling from a target population of 600 participants in a higher education setting. The findings indicate that need for achievement, locus of control, and entrepreneurial attitude have significant effects on entrepreneurial intention, both directly and indirectly. The results further suggest that entrepreneurial attitude functions as an important psychological mechanism that strengthens the influence of achievement orientation and perceived personal control on entrepreneurial intention. These findings imply that efforts to foster entrepreneurial intention should not only focus on entrepreneurial knowledge and business skills, but also on strengthening internal motivation, personal control beliefs, and positive attitudes toward entrepreneurship. This study offers practical implications for educators and higher education institutions in designing entrepreneurship development programs that support psychological readiness, decision-making capability, and entrepreneurial orientation. The study also provides a basis for future research to expand the model by incorporating broader variables and more advanced methodological approaches.

Abstract

In recent years, unemployment among university graduates has remained an important economic challenge, increasing the relevance of entrepreneurship as a strategic pathway for employment creation and economic resilience. This study examines the direct and indirect effects of entrepreneurship education and demographic factors on entrepreneurial intention, with entrepreneurial attitude serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative explanatory approach was employed to investigate the relationships among the proposed variables. Data were collected from 78 respondents selected through proportional random sampling in a higher education context. The findings indicate that entrepreneurship education, demographic factors, and entrepreneurial attitude significantly influence entrepreneurial intention, both directly and indirectly. The results further suggest that entrepreneurial attitude functions as an important mediating mechanism that strengthens the contribution of entrepreneurship education and demographic characteristics to entrepreneurial intention. These findings imply that strengthening entrepreneurial intention requires not only effective entrepreneurship education but also greater attention to individual background characteristics and the formation of positive attitudes toward entrepreneurship. This study offers practical implications for higher education institutions in designing entrepreneurship learning programs that are more adaptive, inclusive, and oriented toward the development of entrepreneurial mindset and intention. The study also provides a basis for future research to expand the model by incorporating additional predictors and broader methodological approaches.

Abstract

This study examines the effects of e-commerce, motivation, and self-belief on entrepreneurial intention, with social media use serving as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed using path analysis, and data were collected through questionnaires from respondents in a higher education context. The findings indicate that e-commerce has a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial intention, while social media use plays an effective mediating role in linking the independent variables to entrepreneurial intention. Motivation emerges as a key factor in strengthening entrepreneurial intention, whereas self-belief shows a more complex relationship that requires further consideration. The model explains 92.6% of the variance in entrepreneurial intention, highlighting the importance of integrating digital technology and social media platforms in fostering entrepreneurial aspirations among young people. These findings suggest that entrepreneurial intention in the digital era is shaped not only by motivational and psychological factors but also by the ability to engage with digital business platforms and social media environments. This study offers practical implications for entrepreneurship education and development programs seeking to encourage stronger entrepreneurial intention through digital exposure, platform familiarity, and more active social media engagement.
