Abstract

Entrepreneurial activities mobilise the country's economy and ensure the well-being of the society. In the education system, entrepreneurship education was introduced more than 30 years ago at the secondary schools. However, issues related to the lack of entrepreneurship inclination and characteristics among students is still being discussed. It is stifling the country's desire to produce more entrepreneurial society and it effects the achievement of the National Education Blueprint (2013-2025) objectives which puts entrepreneurship as a key element from the six student aspiration. Thus, this study aims to identify the level of entrepreneurship inclination and students' self-efficacy level as well as measuring the relationship between the two. Self-efficacy is the main predictor towards students' entrepreneurial attitudes in carrying out entrepreneurial activities in the future. This quantitative study used a survey method by administring questionnaires. A total of 410 business studies pre-university students were randomly selected as respondents of this study. Data were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23 to obtain descriptive analysis and correlation. The findings showed a high level of student entrepreneurship inclination while entrepreneurial self-efficacy is at a moderate level. There is a significant correlation between entrepreneurship inclination and self-efficacy. This study can be used to develop entrepreneurship programs and activities to enhance students' self-efficacy and entrepreneurial inclination. Implementation of effective teaching and learning methods is also crucial to foster the entrepreneurial potential among preuniversity students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
