“…Similarly, Morris and Lewis (1995), Lerner (2000) and Fini et al (2009) also discussed the importance of government support in shaping entrepreneurial intentions. The research also discusses the role of the political environment in determining intentions supporting the findings of Opusunju et al (2018). However, in the current study impact of the conflict was included in this variable and the score was found to be above average (mean = 3.77).…”

“…The second important antecedent of entrepreneurial intention, therefore, in this study represents the contextual elements. It has been seen that entrepreneurs depend on environmental conditions, which influence various aspects of entrepreneurial activity (Opusunju et al, 2018). In this dimension, the role of government policies, the influence of the political environment and economic conditions of a particular region are included.…”

“…This study evaluates the entrepreneurial intentions of students from an Indian perspective by taking EET and TPB theory. These studies include the research carried by Ajzen (1991), Boyd and Vozikis (1994), Bullough et al (2014); Fini et al (2009), Kristiansen and Indarti (2004), Krueger and Carsrud (1993); Lent et al (1994); Mungai and VelaMuri (2011), Opusunju et al (2018); Pittaway and Cope (2007), Ozaralli and Rivenburgh (2016) and Tran and Von Korflesch (2016) and various other studies relevant to the problem under study. Considering all possible predictors of entrepreneurship intention discussed in the literature, the current study included the following three constructs of entrepreneurial intention and proposed hypotheses accordingly.…”

“…The political stability of the environment is very important for the smooth and effective performance of the business. Opusunju et al (2018) found that there is a significant relationship between the influence of the political environment and entrepreneurship development. The influence of the socio-political environment is so determining that it might result in either creation or destruction of entrepreneurship (Aldrich and Wiedenmayer, 1993).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify factors instrumental in developing entrepreneurial intentions among youth. Although, numerous studies have been conducted focusing on entrepreneurship intention, however, this study attempts to provide an integrated model by means of analyzing the impact of internal (personal) and external (environmental) factors in developing entrepreneurial intentions. Design/methodology/approach This cross-sectional study is based on primary and secondary data. A sample of 358 respondents belonging to the age group of 21–25 years from various universities and colleges in Kashmir participated in the study. Primary data collection was done using self-administered questionnaires. A purposive sampling approach was used to identify respondents for the current study. Structural equation modeling has been used for testing hypotheses besides other statistical methods and techniques. Findings The study identifies three important antecedents of entrepreneurship intentions, namely, personal competencies, contextual factors and entrepreneurial exposure and tests the relationships using path analysis. It further suggests that there exists a significant relationship between personal competencies, entrepreneurial exposure, contextual elements and entrepreneurial intention. Originality/value The paper presents an integrated and comprehensive model of entrepreneurial intentions discussing important antecedents instrumental in developing entrepreneurship intentions among youth considering both personal and environmental factors. It is, therefore, an important contribution toward entrepreneurship literature and of interest to different policymakers and institutions related to entrepreneurship.

“…They conclude that macroeconomic indices like interest and inflation rates display instantaneous reactions from their foreign counterpart impulses in advanced economies. Opusunju et al (2020) examined the Nigeria and India trade relations for 20 years between 1999 and 2018 using ex-factor design. The data obtained from the National Bureau of Statistics were analyzed using Microsoft Excel and statistical package for social sciences.…”

Purpose This paper aims to examine Nigeria’s dynamic output and output volatility connectedness with USA, China and India using quarterly data from 1981Q1 to 2019Q4. Design/methodology/approach The study adopted the network approach of Diebold and Yilmaz (2014) and used the normalized generalized forecast error variance decomposition from an underlying vector error correction model to build connectedness measures. Findings The findings show that the global financial crisis (GFC) increased the connectedness index far more than the 2016 Nigeria economic recession. The moderate effect of the 2016 Nigeria economic recession on the connectedness index underscores the fact that Nigeria is a small, open economy with minimal capacity to spread output shock. For both real output and its volatility, the total connectedness index rose smoothly and systematically through time, thereby leaving the economies more connected in the long run. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper is among the first to examine Nigeria’s dynamic output and output volatility connectedness with the USA, China and India using new empirical insights from the GFC versus 2016 Nigerian recession. The study, therefore, concludes that the Nigerian economy should be diversified immediately as a hedge against future real output shocks, while the USA, China and India should maintain and sustain their current policy frameworks to remain less vulnerable to real output shocks.
