| description | This study is aiming to evaluate of entrepreneurial
education, self-efficacy and social influence
on attitude and direct effect of attitude on
intention to become online entrepreneur
among students in online distance learning
(ODL) higher institutions in Malaysia. The
Structural Equation Model (SEM) technique was
employed to analyse the casual relationships
among entrepreneurial education, self-efficacy,
social influence, attitude and intention. Partial
Least Square (PLS) procedure was used to
analyse the developed model by assessing the
data obtained from a questionnaire survey that
produced 272 usable questionnaires. The results
showed that entrepreneurial education, selfefficacy and social influence have a positive and
significant influence on attitude and attitude
has a positive and significant influence on
intention among students in Malaysian ODL
tertiary institutions. The results suggest that
ODL institutions should give greater emphasis
on strengthening entrepreneurial education,
self-efficacy, social influence, attitude to ensure
their ODL students have strong intention to
become online entrepreneur. |
