“…Starting from personal personalities or the external environment, researchers have explored various factors that may lead to EI and studied its influence mechanisms, such as entrepreneurial personalities ( Liu et al, 2021 ; Munir et al, 2021 ; Bui Ngoc Tuan and Pham, 2022 ), cognitive factors ( Neneh, 2020 ; Mickiewicz and Kaasa, 2022 ; Abdelfattah et al, 2022b ), environment elements ( Wn et al, 2020 ; Hossain et al, 2021 ; Bui Ngoc Tuan and Pham, 2022 ). According to the findings of the researchers, these factors have an indirect impact on the intentions of individuals by influencing their attitudes or self-efficacy ( Hossain et al, 2021 ; Liang et al, 2021 ; Westhuizen and Awotunde, 2021 ).…”

“…More and more attention is being paid to the importance of ESE in the prediction of EI. A variety of models have been extended and adjusted to incorporate self-efficacy as a major factor in determining whether or not an individual intends to engage in entrepreneurial activity ( Ahmed et al, 2020 ; Urban, 2020 ; Liang et al, 2021 ; Westhuizen and Awotunde, 2021 ). For example, Sandi and Nurhayati (2020) took self-efficacy as a key antecedent to influencing EI and explored how factors such as entrepreneurship education and family environment affected the formation of EI by influencing ESE.…”

In order to alleviate the increasing employment pressure of vocational college students, the current study is an attempt to explore the factors of entrepreneurial intention affecting vocational college students. The study investigates whether entrepreneurial self-efficacy and attitude mediate this relationship between creativity and entrepreneurial intentions using the theory of planned behavior (TPB). In particular, this research also examines whether risk propensity moderates the relationship. An empirical survey is conducted and a total of 500 valid questionnaires are collected through online platforms. The data is analyzed by employing Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling and SPSS20.0. The results indicate that self-efficacy is the strongest antecedent of entrepreneurial intention. Social support is found to directly influence entrepreneurial intention significantly, while the direct effect of creativity on intention is very marginal. Moreover, the results of the mediation analysis show that the relationship between creativity and entrepreneurial intention is fully mediated by self-efficacy and attitude, while the effect of social support on entrepreneurial intention is partially mediated. Specifically, the moderation effect of risk propensity on the relationship between creativity and entrepreneurial intention is acknowledged. Concrete suggestions are proposed for vocational colleges and governments to promote students’ entrepreneurial intentions. Finally, implications for the findings are provided.

“…The TPB framework consists of three constructs, namely Attitude, Subjective norm and Perceived Behavioural Control (PBC), that lead to the formation of behavioural intention which in turn influences behaviour (Ajzen, 1991;White et al, 2019). Previous studies have utilised TPB framework to assess individual's intention and behaviour (Tiwari et al, 2017;Sadiq et al, 2019;Shin and Kim, 2015;Cordano and Frieze, 2000;Liang and Chen, 2021). This article examines the mediating role of attitude and PBC in the relationship between financial incentives and adoption intention.…”

PurposeElectric cars have very little market share in developing countries despite their environmental benefits. Thus, governments have started promoting electric cars by providing financial incentives to consumers. The current article aims to examine the direct and indirect effects of government financial incentives on consumer electric car adoption in India.Design/methodology/approachThe study followed a quantitative research method that employed a self-administered survey questionnaire. Structural Equation Modelling and Multi-Group Analysis were followed for data analysis.FindingsThe study revealed that financial incentives have an indirect effect on electric car adoption intention rather than a direct effect. In addition, financial incentives were found to have a direct effect on attitude and Perceived Behavioural Control (PBC). Attitude and PBC positively influenced consumer adoption intention.Practical implicationsThe insights and implications from the present study would help policymakers and marketers to formulate better incentive policies and market strategies to increase consumer acceptance of electric cars in developing countries.Originality/valueThe study contributes to the literature by analysing the underlying mechanism that links government financial incentives to electric car adoption intention. This study also explored the direct effect of financial incentives on attitude and PBC, which are less investigated in electric vehicle literature. In addition, the present article also assessed the moderating role of age in electric car adoption, which has mixed evidence in the literature, and such studies are scarce in the Indian context.

“…Studies have shown that entrepreneurial training boosts entrepreneurs’ entrepreneurial intentions and behaviors and improves their entrepreneurial performance ( Akhtar, 2021 ). As a result, we believe that entrepreneurial education can help farmers with entrepreneurial orientation or potential to build entrepreneurial skills and knowledge and boost their chances of launching a firm ( Liang and Chen, 2020 ). Keeping in view the role of education for entrepreneurship, the following hypothesis was devised.…”

Farmers have been very precious for societies for ages. Their active experiments, valuable knowledge about their surroundings, environment, and crops’ requirements have been a vital part of society. However, the psychological perspectives have been a hole in the loop of farming. Hence, this study has investigated the antecedents of entrepreneurial behaviors of farmers with the mediating risk of their entrepreneurial self-efficacy (ESE). The population chosen for this study was the farming community of suburbs of China, and a sample size of 300 was selected for the data collection. This is a survey study, where a structured questionnaire was adapted on a five-point Likert scale. The data were collected from the farming community to know their psychological and behavioral preferences about their profession. This study has produced interesting results that education, training, and intrinsic motivation play a vital role in farmers’ ESE, affecting their entrepreneurial behaviors. This study will add to the body of knowledge and provide an eminent path for emerging entrepreneurs to find more mentorship opportunities to overcome the limitations in upcoming endeavors influencing education and training.
