In recent years, innovation and entrepreneurship education is one of the hot spots of higher education research and practice in China. Innovation and entrepreneurship education can be taken as a new direction. Despite the commonly held view that entrepreneurship education drive the promotion of entrepreneurial intention, little is known about the mechanism through which this intervention impacts on entrepreneurial intention. Based on the assimilation learning theory of cognitive structure and the planned behavior theory, the purpose of this work is to analyze the relationship between innovation and entrepreneurship education (IEE) and entrepreneurial intention from the perspective of educational psychology, to explore the influence mechanism of IEE on entrepreneurial intention, and to promote the success of college students in entrepreneurship. In this study, questionnaires were conducted among college students of different colleges, majors, and grades in Anhui province, with the aid of multiple linear regression analysis and mediating effect model analysis. The results show that IEE has positive effect on entrepreneurial intention. In addition, entrepreneurial knowledge plays a mediating role in the relationship between IEE and entrepreneurial intention. And the mediating effect of innovation behavior and entrepreneurial attitude is not obvious. These results are expected to provide evidence for understanding the relationship between IEE and entrepreneurial intention under the background of Chinese education, to enrich and expand the theoretical basis of IEE, and to possess theoretical, empirical, and practical significance for the design and implementation of innovation and entrepreneurship education for college students.
近年来，创新创业教育是中国高等教育研究与实践的热点之一。创新创业教育可被视为一个新方向。尽管人们普遍认为创业教育推动了创业意向的提升，但对于这种干预影响创业意向的机制却知之甚少。基于认知结构的同化学习理论和计划行为理论，本研究旨在从教育心理学的角度分析创新创业教育（IEE）与创业意向之间的关系，探索IEE对创业意向的影响机制，并促进大学生创业成功。在本研究中，借助多元线性回归分析和中介效应模型分析，对安徽省不同学院、专业和年级的大学生进行了问卷调查。结果表明，IEE对创业意向有积极影响。此外，创业知识在IEE与创业意向的关系中起中介作用。而创新行为和创业态度的中介作用不明显。这些结果有望为理解中国教育背景下IEE与创业意向之间的关系提供依据，丰富和拓展IEE的理论基础，并对大学生创新创业教育的设计与实施具有理论、实证和实践意义。
