Stimulating potential entrepreneurs is a global challenge and policymakers need to understand factors affecting students' entrepreneurial intention. The growing body of literature has focused on the impact of entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intention, while this study aims to explore other predicted factors affecting students' entrepreneurial intention, such as family economic education, peer groups, and economic literacy. This study adopted a quantitative method using a survey approach to obtain comprehensive findings. The research involved online questionnaires to approximately 1000 students undergoing convenience sampling in a university in Indonesia as participants. The results indicated that both family economic education and peer groups positively correlate with economic literacy and students' entrepreneurial intention. These results confirmed a crucial role of economic literacy that government and educational institutions can consider to stimulate students' entrepreneurial intention. This study also contributes to the educational sector and governments to facilitate the creation of student-working groups in entrepreneurship as an attempt to encourage students' engagement.
激发潜在企业家是一项全球性挑战,政策制定者需要了解影响学生创业意愿的因素。越来越多的文献关注创业教育与创业意愿的影响,而本研究旨在探索其他影响学生创业意愿的预测因素,如家庭经济教育、同龄人群体和经济素养。本研究采用定量方法,通过调查方式获得全面的结果。该研究通过在线问卷对印度尼西亚一所大学中约1000名采用便利抽样的学生进行了调查。结果表明,家庭经济教育和同龄人群体都与经济素养和学生的创业意愿呈正相关。这些结果证实了经济素养的关键作用,政府和教育机构可以考虑以此来激发学生的创业意愿。本研究还为教育部门和政府提供了帮助,以促进创业学生工作小组的创建,以此鼓励学生参与其中。
