The alternative pathway to entrepreneurial intention
Abstract:
Entrepreneurial Intention often draws the interests of many researchers over a few decades. In the context of higher education, this study examines the effects of learning from the module enabling passionate students to entrepreneurial intention. We call the mediating relationships from entrepreneurial passion to intention as a pathway. The traditional pathway to entrepreneurial intention usually includes self-efficacy. However, not every student is confident and learning from the module does not significantly improve self-efficacy. Therefore, we hypothesize the moderating relationships between entrepreneurial alertness as an alternative pathway from entrepreneurial passion to the intention with the moderating effects of learning from the entrepreneurship module. Furthermore, the moderating role is stronger when an individual possesses a higher level of entrepreneurial passion. Using the survey data from 920 Thai students who enrolled entrepreneurship module at Thammasat University, we find substantial support for mediating hypothesis of entrepreneurial alertness and moderating hypothesis of learning from the module. Our findings offer theoretical and practical implications in terms of helping entrepreneurial educators to design proper and personalized learning interventions for students
