“…Características como proatividade e propensão ao risco são consideradas traços de empreendedores (Lumpkin & Pidduch, 2021;Tang et al, 2021). Estudos mostram ainda que eles demonstram elevada confiança na sua capacidade de explorar oportunidades, bem como autoeficácia (Davidsson et al, 2019).…”

“…SCCT aims to understand how career choices are developed through self-efficacy and outcome expectations, leading to career interest, career intention and choice of actions, in considering the effect of the learning experiences and the contextual factors that could affect the process of career choice. Although very promising in studying entrepreneurial career choice and intention, this theory is silent about the specific nature of entrepreneurship: the role of entrepreneurial opportunities (Davidsson et al, 2019;Sarasvathy et al, 2010;Scheaf et al, 2020;Shane & Venkataraman, 2000). In fact, and surprisingly, the most important theory to study EI, namely TPB (Lortie & Castrogiovanni, 2015;Schlaegel & Koenig, 2014), is also silent about the role of the opportunity to develop the intentions to become an entrepreneur.…”

PURPOSE: This study aims to integrate insights from the Socio-Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) and entrepreneurship literature to develop a research framework of how perceived entrepreneurial opportunities (PEO) and perceived educational support (PES) shape the progression of entrepreneurial self-efficacy (ESE) and entrepreneurial career interests (ECI). Additionally, this study investigates whether ECI mediates the effects of PEO and PES on entrepreneurial intention (EI) and how PEO and PES moderate the effects of ESE and ECI on EI. METHODOLOGY: A sample of 888 university students was recruited from Vietnam. Cronbach’s alpha and confirmatory factor analyses were adopted to test the reliability and validity of the scales. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is then used to test formulated hypotheses. FINDINGS: The current study demonstrates that ESE and ECI directly trigger EI. Although PES and PEO did not directly impact EI, their influence on EI was mediated through ESE and ECI. In addition, PEO was found to act as a positive catalyst for the transformation of ESE and ECI into EI. The greater the entrepreneurial opportunities students perceive, the more likely they are to convert ESE and ECI into intentions to become entrepreneurs. IMPLICATIONS: This study makes a significant contribution by emphasizing the relevance of the SCCT framework in understanding entrepreneurship and brings to the forefront the role of PES and PEO in shaping the progression of ESE, ECI and, ultimately, EI. In addition, the findings of this study provide practical implications for nascent entrepreneurs, entrepreneurship educators, and policymakers. ORIGINALITY AND VALUE: This study is one of the first to investigate the role of PEO and PES in the development of Vietnamese students’ SES, ECI and, ultimately, their intention to engage in entrepreneurship.

is an interdisciplinary, double-blind peer-reviewed journal, emphasizing theoretical and empirical articles on entrepreneurship, management, and innovation. The journal is published in ELECTRONIC (online first) and PRINT (occasionally) formats. See our website: http://www.jemi.edu.pl.JEMI is an interdisciplinary, focused on economics, business, and management journal that uniquely combines three thematic areas: i) entrepreneurship, including entrepreneurial process, entrepreneurial finance, and SME and entrepreneurship policy; ii) all types of management; iii) innovation, comprising innovation economics, policy, and management. In this vein, the JEMI contributes to economics, business, and management research, as well as business practice and policy in the closely related areas of new venture creation and growth, knowledge generation, retention, appropriation, transfer, and governance, as well as innovation processes and their economic impacts. In a nutshell, our journal addresses the interrelated research fields of entrepreneurial venturing and growth, management, and innovation economics and management. We also acknowledge the context of business venturing, knowledge and innovation, by linking these areas with such background topics as social context of entrepreneurship, environmental and energy issues, human resource migration, or entrepreneurial finance. THE ENTREPRENEURSHIP AREA OF THE JOURNALThe entrepreneurship area of the journal covers the three major topics: 1) venture creation and small business, 2) the impact of entrepreneurship on economic growth including local and regional development, and 3) entrepreneurial attitudes and motives. We invite original papers of theoretical and empirical nature, rooted in the disciplines of economics, management, sociology, political science, and psychology. The interdisciplinary research is encouraged to assure a comprehensive approach to the topics discussed and to advance both theory and practice. THE MANAGEMENT AREA OF THE JOURNALWe welcome articles interpreting contemporary management problems, new methods and management tools, new forms of organization and management, new threats in management, or new challenges in the organization's environment. Management, as a thematic scope of the journal, focuses on theoretical and empirical considerations of various areas (but not limited to): such as strategic management, business process management, operation or production management, human resource management, information management, and network management. THE INNOVATION AREA OF THE JOURNALThe innovation area of the Journal's focus emphasizes a broad range of topics and approaches, including (but not limited to): comparative analyses of national and regional policy or sector issues, such as R&D trends, patents, citations, etc., empirical studies on within-organization innovation management, viewed from various perspectives (organizational behavior, psychology of creativity, organizational structures, styles of leadership and team-building strategies, promoting creativi...
