Abstract : Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun |
This study was conducted to determine the effect of social (family and peers) support
on entrepreneurial intentions among undergraduates at Universiti Pendidikan Sultan
Idris (UPSI). The study uses quantitative and deductive approaches. The sample of the
study consisted of 107 undergraduates who were selected using systematic sampling
method. Data is collected using questionnaires as instruments. The data collected were
analyzed by Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) software. Descriptive
analysis was used to analyze the demographic of respondents. Multiple Linear
Regression was used to test the effect of family and peers support on the intention to
pursue entrepreneurship. The findings of the study show a significant effect of social
support including family and peers support on the entrepreneurial intention among the
undergraduates. The findings of this study are expected to suggest both policymakers
and universities raise awareness among students and shape their entrepreneurial
intention in order to address youth unemployment concerns. |
