dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study is to investigate The Effect of Demographic Factor, Personal Factor and Environmental Factor on Entrepreneurial Intention: The case study on Addis Ababa University Business Students. It was conducted to determine what factors affect the entrepreneurial intention of the students. Some studies have been done in this area but only a few were conducted in Ethiopia. This research aims to address the gap that exists due to the weakness of previous studies to verify the factors that affect entrepreneurial intention and provide more clarification on the topic, by taking 202 samples from Addis Ababa university faculty of business and economics business students and Addis Ababa University School of Commerce business students, To identify whether a demographic, personal and environmental factors affect the entrepreneurial intention of Addis Ababa University business students and as a moderator family background was added to identify whether having an entrepreneurial family background in moderating the relationship between environmental factors & entrepreneurial intention has a positive impact. Moderated hierarchical regression has been applied to see how independent variables and moderator variable influence entrepreneurial intention. From the analyses it is confirmed that demographic factors have statistically insignificant effect on entrepreneurial intention, while personal factors and environmental factors have a statistically significant effect on entrepreneurial intention and having an entrepreneurial family background moderates the relationship between environmental factors and entrepreneurial intention. Based on the findings it is concluded that demographic factor does not affect entrepreneurial intention while personal factors and environmental factors affect entrepreneurial intention and also having an entrepreneurial family background moderates the relationship between environmental factors and entrepreneurial intention. | en_US |
