“…Those who inherit or purchase a firm fall between these two extremes, and they represent a diverse mix of people regarding their underlying motivations and attitudes. Accordingly, Lans et al (2010) defined three types of intention to create a business: classical entrepreneurial intention (i.e., the intention to establish a business), alternative entrepreneurial intention (i.e., the intention to continue operating an inherited or acquired firm), and intrapreneurial intention (i.e., the intention to be an intrapreneur or corporate entrepreneur). These three types of intention indicate that learning goals and professional needs differ among entrepreneurs.…”

Promoting farming work is crucial for sustainable economic development in Asian-Pacific rural areas. How to promote rural entrepreneurship has recently become a critical issue in agricultural education. This article reports the results of two subsequent studies. The first study confirmed the factor structures of the five-factor model of personality, the general self-efficacy scale, and the entrepreneurial intention scale. The second study tested the mediating effect of self-efficacy on the relationship between personality traits and entrepreneurial intention among agricultural students. The results indicate that entrepreneurial intention comprises two dimensions: conviction and preparation. Accordingly, the mediation model of self-efficacy is partially supported. Extraversion, openness, conscientiousness, and agreeableness reliably predict both conviction and preparation, whereas neuroticism does not. In addition to the indirect effects, both openness and negative emotion exert a direct effect on entrepreneurial intention in agricultural students.

“…A 9-item entrepreneurial intention scale (EIS) was adopted from Wang, Peng, and Liang (2014), which was based on Liñán and Chen (2009) and Lans et al (2010). In addition, we adopted a 37-item psychological variable scale (PVS; Wang et al, 2014), which was based on Chao-Tung Liang, Chaoyun Liang / several international scales (Chen et al, 2001;Harter, 1981;Hsu et al, 2013;Paas & van Merriënboer, 1994;Schraw & Dennison, 1994;Tuccitto et al, 2010).…”

“…These three types of intention suggest that learning goals and professional needs differ amongst entrepreneurs. In the current study, entrepreneurial intention was measured according to Liñán and Chen (2009) and Lans et al (2010). Prodan and Drnovsek (2010) claimed that there are knowledge gaps regarding the specific determinants and processes that characterise the emergence of academics' entrepreneurial intentions that lead them to establish spin-off companies.…”

“…We focused on the psychological factors intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, positive emotion, negative emotion, cognitive load, metacognition, and self-efficacy. The assessment of entrepreneurial intention was based on Liñán and Chen (2009) and Lans, Gulikers, and Batterink (2010). The measurements of psychological factors were adopted from several international scales (Chen, Gully, & Eden, 2001;Harter, 1981;Hsu, Liang, & Chang, 2013;Paas, & van 7 Chao-Tung Liang, Chaoyun Liang / Merriënboer, 1994;Schraw & Dennison, 1994;Tuccitto, Giacobbi, & Leite, 2010).…”

Unraveling the effects of entrepreneurial passion and entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial intention: The moderating role of demographic characteristics

et al. 2022

The purpose of this study is to highlight the role of various antecedents influencing the level of entrepreneurial intention by developing an integrated intention model that is based on social cognitive theory (SCT) and social cognitive career theory (SCCT). The hypotheses are validated by applying a meta‐analytic method to 94 primary studies that were published between 2004 and 2021. The findings provide empirical evidence and confirm that entrepreneurial passion is the strongest indicator to predict self‐efficacy and the willingness of entrepreneurs toward self‐employment. Role models and entrepreneurship education play a critical role as predictors of entrepreneurial perceptions and beliefs in driving entrepreneurial intention. In addition, age, gender, and work experience significantly moderate the relationship between entrepreneurial passion, role models, entrepreneurship education, self‐efficacy, and entrepreneurial intention, indicating that men are reported to be more skilled than women at discovering new business opportunities and turning them into actual companies. In particular, older women are often more successful than young women when they start businesses since they possess more entrepreneurial knowledge, and individuals with extensive prior experience have a strong belief in their abilities, which contributes to the formation of entrepreneurial intention. These findings are critical to understanding the antecedents of entrepreneurship‐related phenomena by reference to a particular set of demographic moderators when a meta‐analytic technique is adopted.
