Mesleki İlgi Alanı ve Kişisel Ahlak Felsefesinin Girişimciliğe Yönelik Tutum ve Girişimcilik Niyetine Etkisi: Üniversite Öğrencileri Üzerine Bir Araştırma

In this study, it is aimed to explore the effect of students’ vocational interest and ethical positions formed by their personal moral philosophies on their attitudes towards entrepreneurship and their entrepreneurial intentions by means of structural equation model (SEM). For this purpose, an empirical work was carried out with reference to the data taken from the students who are having education at the Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences in Ondokuz Mayis University. According to the results, it has been found out that the enterprising vocational interest among the typologies of vocational interests Holland (1959) proposed, is likely to have a positive and significant influence on students’ attitudes towards entrepreneurship. Moreover, it has been observed that those students who have endorsed idealism in their ethical positions are negatively influenced in their attitudes towards entrepreneurship, while the students who have endorsed relativism in their ethical positions are positively influenced, though not in a considerable level. And finally, it has been found out that students’ attitudes towards entrepreneurship have a shaping and a structuring effect upon their entrepreneurial intentions.
