Bu çalışma, sosyo-demografik özelliklerin, bireysel özelliklerin ve liderlik yönelimlerinin üniversite öğrencilerinin girişimcilik eğilimleri üzerindeki etkisini incelemektedir. Bu çalışmanın örneklemini 333 lisans öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Veriler, "Öğrencilerin Sosyo-Demografik ve Bireysel Özelliklerine İlişkin Bilgi Formu", "Üniversite Öğrencileri İçin Girişimcilik Eğilimleri Ölçeği" ve "Çok Boyutlu Liderlik Yönelimleri Ölçeği (ÇBLYÖ) "nden oluşan çevrimiçi bir anket formu aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde doğrusal regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Üniversite öğrencilerinin girişimcilik eğilimleri toplam puan ortalaması yüksek olarak bulunmuştur. Öğrencilerin girişimcilik eğilimlerinin ÇBLYÖ'nin alt boyutlarından, cinsiyet, sınıf, iş deneyimi, girişimcilik dersi alma durumu ve ailede girişimci olması gibi bazı değişkenlerden etkilendiği belirlenmiştir. Politika yapıcılar ve eğitim kurumları, kadınların girişimcilik eğilimlerini artırmak için lisans programlarına liderlik ve girişimcilik derslerini entegre etmeye, toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliğine dayalı faaliyetler planlamaya yönelik politikalar oluşturmalıdır.

THE EFFECT OF SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC, INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERISTICS, AND LEADERSHIP ORIENTATIONS ON THE ENTREPRENEURSHIP TENDENCIES OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

https://izlik.org/JA29GC65FT

Öz

This study examines the effect of socio-demographics, individual characteristics, and leadership orientations on students’ entrepreneurial tendencies. This study consisted of 333 undergraduate students. The data were collected via an online questionnaire form consisting of the “Information Form on Socio-Demographic and Individual Characteristics of Students,” “Entrepreneurial Tendencies Scale for University Students,” and the “Multidimensional Leadership Orientations Scale (MLOS).” Linear regression analysis was used to analyze the data. University students' total score of entrepreneurial tendencies was high. It was found that students' entrepreneurial tendencies were affected by subdimensions of the MLOS and some variables such as gender, class, work experience, entrepreneurship course status, and having an entrepreneur in the family. Policymakers and educational institutions should integrate leadership and entrepreneurship courses in undergraduate programs and plan activities based on gender equality to increase women's entrepreneurial tendencies, provide opportunities, and create policies in this direction.
