This study is focused on the effect of emotional intelligence (EQ), spiritual intelligence (SQ), and dart accountability quotients training modules (TM-DESQ) on employees’ performance working in the public enterprise (and private sector) of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Research manifests that EQ and SQ positively and significantly affect employee performance, progress, and development. The importance of emotional intelligence has been widely emphasized in human resource studies, similarly, literature articulates that accountability is an essential factor for the good governance of the public sector enterprise performance. Worldwide studies have a few contradictory results concerning EQ and SQ, and their impact on performance. Training programs on SQ learning lack longitudinal studies. SQ training’s impact on individual learning, performance, and HRD training was a research gap bridged through this study. A sample of 42 public and private sector employees took their EQ, SQ, and Dart Accountability scores as pen-and-paper self-report measures whereas the performance of employees was reported by their supervisors or managers as the second source of data. Basic training on EQ, SQ, and Dart Accountability (DESQ) was designed and TM-DESQ Intervention was instructed to respondents through webinars amid the COVID-19 Pandemic. The results demonstrated a positive and significant impact of emotional intelligence, spiritual intelligence, and dart accountability on employee performance. However, the insignificant effect of a few facets of some variables has opened other dimensions of research.
本研究的重点是情绪智力(EQ)、精神智力(SQ)和问责商培训模块(TM-DESQ)对巴基斯坦伊斯兰共和国公共企业(和私营部门)员工绩效的影响。研究表明,情商和情商对员工的绩效、进步和发展有着积极而显著的影响。情商的重要性在人力资源研究中得到了广泛的强调,同样,文献表明问责制是公共部门企业绩效良好治理的重要因素。在世界范围内的研究中,关于情商和情商及其对绩效的影响,有一些相互矛盾的结果。SQ学习培训项目缺乏纵向研究。SQ培训对个人学习、绩效和人力资源开发培训的影响是本研究的一个研究空白。42名公共和私营部门员工的样本将他们的情商、SQ和Dart问责得分作为纸笔自我报告的衡量标准,而员工的表现则由他们的主管或经理作为第二数据来源报告。在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间,设计了情商、SQ和Dart问责制(DESQ)的基本培训,并通过网络研讨会向受访者指导了TM-DESQ干预措施。结果表明,情绪智力、精神智力和责任对员工绩效有显著的正向影响。然而,一些变量的几个方面的影响不显著,开辟了其他维度的研究。

The purpose of this research is to propose the methodology for the measurement of levels of automation with the help of a dynamo reference scale for dynamic levels of automation and to find its relationship with organizational performance and employee job performance while bifurcating the tasks performed by humans and machines. The present research is quantitative in nature and conducted to find out the hypothetical relationship between levels of automation and organizational performance, and employee’s job performance with the survey questionnaire. The data was collected from managers and employees working directly with machinery involved in production, particularly the Kotri textile mill in the industrial zone of Kotri, Pakistan. The hypotheses testing suggests that the proposed model achieved an acceptable fit with the data (i.e., out of 7 hypotheses, 6 hypotheses were significantly accepted). The study has limitations in generalization, in terms of the survey questionnaire, and the targeted audience (employees of the firms & managers of the concerned department) of textile mills of the Kotri industrial zone. The first research contributes to the methodology in business studies for measuring levels of automation by employing a dynamo reference scale for levels of automation from industrial engineering which is totally a new concept in business studies for measurement of automation and can easily bifurcate a number of tasks performed by humans and machines. The second contribution of the study provides insight into how organizations are performing at an optimal level with the help of machinery only with a minimal number of employees. Finally, future research strongly suggests implementing the methodology for measurement of automation coupled with business research methods in other industries to understand their level of automation and task performance by employees and machinery in this modern age where all tasks are performed by machines only part of supervision is performed by humans this may bring about interesting possible outcomes.
本研究的目的是在动态自动化水平的动力参考量表的帮助下,提出自动化水平的测量方法,并发现其与组织绩效和员工工作绩效的关系,同时分岔人与机器执行的任务。本研究的性质是定量的,并通过调查问卷来寻找自动化水平与组织绩效和员工工作绩效之间的假设关系。数据是从直接与生产机械打交道的管理人员和雇员那里收集的,特别是在巴基斯坦Kotri工业区的Kotri纺织厂。假设检验表明,所提出的模型与数据达到了可接受的拟合(即,在7个假设中,6个假设被显著接受)。在调查问卷和目标受众(公司员工)方面,该研究在泛化方面存在局限性;Kotri工业区纺织厂有关部门的管理人员。第一项研究为商业研究中测量自动化水平的方法做出了贡献,通过采用工业工程自动化水平的发电机参考标度,这是商业研究中测量自动化水平的一个全新概念,可以很容易地将人类和机器执行的许多任务分岔。该研究的第二个贡献提供了洞察组织如何在机器的帮助下以最少的员工数量达到最佳水平。最后,未来的研究强烈建议实施自动化测量方法,并结合其他行业的商业研究方法,以了解他们的自动化水平,以及在这个所有任务都由机器执行的现代时代,员工和机器的任务绩效,只有部分监督由人类执行,这可能会带来有趣的可能结果。

The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically transformed various aspects of daily life, and its impact on global economic activity has been severe. As a result, microfinance institutions (MFIs) have become increasingly important in improving the standard of living for the poor. This study aims to investigate the impact of fintech on the services provided by MFIs in the financial sector, specifically in the microfinance sector of Pakistan. Using fintech as an independent variable with four indicators, microfinance services as a dependent variable with four indicators, and COVID-19 as a moderator variable with one indicator, the study employs a quantitative research method with a five-point Likert scale questionnaire. A random sampling technique was used to select a sample of 300 employees from five out of 11 MFBs in Pakistan, with 276 responses considered appropriate for further analysis. The researchers used MS Excel and SmartPLS software to analyze the reliability and validity of the data, and PLS-SEM techniques were used to evaluate the relationship between fintech and MFIs, and the moderating effect of COVID-19. The study found a positive and significant impact of fintech on MFIs, and the moderator variable (COVID-19) enhanced the relationship between fintech and MFIs. These findings highlight the importance of integrating fintech into the services provided by MFIs to improve the overall economic activity of the microfinance sector, particularly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
2019冠状病毒病大流行极大地改变了日常生活的各个方面,对全球经济活动产生了严重影响。因此,小额信贷机构在提高穷人的生活水平方面变得越来越重要。本研究旨在调查金融科技对小额信贷机构在金融部门提供的服务的影响,特别是在巴基斯坦的小额信贷部门。本研究以金融科技为自变量(4个指标),小额信贷服务为因变量(4个指标),COVID-19为调节变量(1个指标),采用李克特五点问卷定量研究方法。采用随机抽样技术,从巴基斯坦11家mfb中的5家选择了300名员工,其中276人的回答被认为适合进一步分析。研究人员使用MS Excel和SmartPLS软件分析数据的信度和效度,并使用PLS-SEM技术评估金融科技与小额信贷机构的关系,以及COVID-19的调节作用。研究发现,金融科技对小额信贷机构具有显著的正向影响,调节变量(COVID-19)增强了金融科技与小额信贷机构之间的关系。这些发现强调了将金融科技纳入小额信贷机构提供的服务,以改善小额信贷部门的整体经济活动的重要性,特别是在2019冠状病毒病大流行的背景下。

This research aims to look at the prospects of entrepreneurship education in Pakistan post-covid. New entrepreneurial education approaches are required to address the effects of COVID-19 globally. To achieve this, this study explicates the way new strategies for explaining how the COVID-19 pandemic might make entrepreneurial education research an evolutional field. The study found that several assumptions have transformed due to the COVID-19 impact, and entrepreneurship education is essential in combating the pandemic. Therefore, this study argues that further research on entrepreneurship education that integrates a COVID-19 setting is important in opening new views and changing the study agenda. An enhanced investigation of how mechanisms of response, such as change and recovery, are assumed to propel entrepreneurial stakeholders to adopt the perception that entrepreneurship education is an extensive process. As a result, the COVID-19 situation is viewed as a chance of highlighting the worth of entrepreneurial education for society.

Umair Khan, Nasreen Aslam Shah
In this research study, an investigation on the socio-economic conditions and historical background of women living in Orangi Town, Karachi, has been chosen, and the purpose of selecting this subject is to get factual information about the lives of women living in this town. The main objective was to scrutinize the actual position of women in socioeconomic contribution and examine their economic status in society. The researcher selected a quantitative research methodology. The research sample consisted of about two hundred (200) women. The researcher used a self-administrative questionnaire to collect data from the respondents. Paid (stitching, embroidery, beauticians, teachers, etc.) and unpaid (homemakers) women were selected as respondents to the research. The study results reveal a strong male-dominant social structure in Orangi town, and women cannot participate in any decision-making activities in public or private spheres of life. The standard education system, patriarchal society, religious misconceptions, the low participation level of women in decision-making, the low level of economic activities, and financial weakness are the main reasons for the decline in the socioeconomic status of women in Orangi town. The researchers suggested that public and private sectors should assist women in small-scale businesses; high-standard educational opportunities because these opportunities increase women's socioeconomic conditions in Orangi town, Karachi.
在本研究中,选择了对生活在卡拉奇Orangi镇的妇女的社会经济条件和历史背景的调查,选择这个主题的目的是为了获得关于生活在这个镇的妇女生活的事实信息。主要目标是审查妇女在社会经济贡献方面的实际地位,并审查她们在社会中的经济地位。研究人员选择了定量研究方法。研究样本包括大约200名女性。研究人员使用自我管理问卷来收集受访者的数据。有薪(缝纫、刺绣、美容师、教师等)和无薪(家庭主妇)女性被选为调查对象。研究结果表明,奥兰基镇存在着男性主导的社会结构,女性无法参与公共或私人生活领域的任何决策活动。标准化的教育制度、男权社会、宗教误解、妇女参与决策水平低、经济活动水平低、经济实力薄弱是造成Orangi镇妇女社会经济地位下降的主要原因。研究人员建议,公共和私营部门应协助妇女从事小型企业;高标准的教育机会,因为这些机会提高了卡拉奇Orangi镇妇女的社会经济条件。

Overcoming the pitfalls in employee performance evaluation: An application of ratings mode of the Analytic Hierarchy Process 克服员工绩效评估的缺陷:层次分析法评级模式的应用
IF 1.8 Q3 BUSINESS Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.7341/20231924
R. Islam, N. Periaiah
PURPOSE: Employee performance evaluation is a common exercise conducted in many organizations. Employees need to know the feedback on their performance from the management. Often the results of performance evaluation exercises are used for promotion, confirmation in service and awarding of bonuses for employees. However, the performance evaluation exercise often meets with criticism due to the presence of subjective factors and, specifically, the way in which these factors are handled. The purpose of the present paper is to show how the Ratings mode of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) can be applied to evaluate employee performance using objective as well as subjective criteria. METHODOLOGY: The whole AHP exercise for the present employee performance evaluation has been shown through a case study on CLSB, a company in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Four senior managers and the Managing Director of the company were involved in all phases of the present evaluation exercise, including elicitation of the criteria, sub-criteria and assigning weights to them. The AHP data were analyzed using software called AHP Calc version 24.12.13 developed by Klaus D. Goepel and available online. In particular, the Ratings mode of AHP was used to evaluate employees’ performance at CLSB. FINDINGS: Five criteria, namely Services, Quality, Financial, Timing, and Teamwork, are found to be important for the evaluation of employee performance at CLSB. Each of these criteria has sub-criteria. Harmonious work, Skills, and Punctuality are found to be the three most important sub-criteria for the present evaluation exercise. The outcome of the evaluation exercise provides an ordered set of ranks of 20 employees working in the company. Apart from the application of AHP for performance evaluation, an ordered set of detailed rubrics for all the criteria have been developed. The rubrics provide precise guidelines to the evaluators at the time of evaluating employees’ performance. IMPLICATIONS: An evaluation scheme that is scientific and systematic, such as the present one, will minimize criticism levied against the performance evaluation exercise. Once the employees are aware of the criteria and sub-criteria set along with the associated weighting scheme and the evaluation process itself, they will be motivated to perform their tasks and discharge their duties accordingly. Hence, employee job satisfaction and productivity are expected to increase. This will bolster not only the employees’ morale but also the organization’s overall performance. ORIGINALITY AND VALUE: In the literature, many schemes are available to evaluate employees’ performance. But often, these methods are criticized as they either take all the criteria of evaluation as equally important or they lack the capability to strike a balance between objective and subjective factors. The main contribution of the present work is to show how AHP can alleviate the above drawbacks of the existing methods. The present research
目的:在许多组织中,员工绩效评估是一项常见的工作。员工需要知道管理层对他们表现的反馈。业绩评估的结果通常用于员工的晋升、服务的确认和奖金的发放。但是,由于主观因素的存在,特别是处理这些因素的方式,业绩评价工作经常受到批评。本文的目的是展示层次分析法(AHP)的评级模式如何应用于使用客观和主观标准来评估员工绩效。方法:整个AHP练习为目前的员工绩效评估已通过CLSB,一家公司在吉隆坡,马来西亚的案例研究显示。四名高级管理人员和该公司的常务董事参与了本评价工作的所有阶段,包括提出标准、分标准和分配它们的权重。AHP数据使用由Klaus D. Goepel开发的AHP Calc 24.12.13版软件进行分析,该软件可在网上获得。特别是运用AHP的评分模式对CLSB的员工绩效进行评价。研究发现:服务、质量、财务、时间和团队合作这五个标准对CLSB的员工绩效评价很重要。这些标准中的每一个都有子标准。和谐工作、技能和准时被认为是目前评估工作的三个最重要的子标准。评估工作的结果提供了在公司工作的20名员工的有序等级集。除了应用层次分析法进行绩效评价外,还为所有标准制定了一套有序的详细细则。这些准则为评估人员在评估员工绩效时提供了精确的指导。影响:科学和系统的评价办法,如目前的办法,将尽量减少对业绩评价工作的批评。一旦员工了解了标准和子标准以及相关的加权方案和评估过程本身,他们就会有动力执行任务并相应地履行职责。因此,员工的工作满意度和生产力有望提高。这不仅能鼓舞员工的士气,还能提高组织的整体绩效。独创性和价值:在文献中,有许多方案可以用来评估员工的绩效。但是,这些方法往往受到批评,因为它们要么把所有的评估标准都同等重要,要么缺乏在客观因素和主观因素之间取得平衡的能力。本工作的主要贡献是展示AHP如何能够减轻现有方法的上述缺点。目前的研究工作已经开发出一种简单直接的绩效评估方法,并详细阐述了如何实际应用该方法来衡量员工的绩效。该方法可以应用于其他公司的员工绩效衡量,但需要对标准进行必要的修改,并赋予适当的权重。

PURPOSE: The primary aim of this research is to explore the correlation between learners’ characteristics and the perceived value and satisfaction associated with Project-Based Flipped Learning (PBFL) methodologies. A secondary objective involves investigating how these PBFL methodologies can be employed to enhance the quality of entrepreneurship education for women. METHODOLOGY: During the first semester of 2018, a total of 80 students enrolled in the Communication Society class were engaged in a longitudinal study, involving bi-weekly online surveys prior to the semester’s conclusion. The survey instruments utilized Likert-scale measurements, with a 5-point scoring system. The data acquired was subsequently analyzed using structural equation modeling, which facilitated the examination of both the pre- and post-change scores and the structural properties of their relationships with overall course satisfaction. In terms of statistical evaluation, the study employed Generalized Structured Component Analysis (GSCA), a powerful component-based SEM technique, thus ensuring a robust and academically rigorous interpretation of the data. FINDINGS: Our research sought to understand the effects of learners’ characteristics, specifically innovativeness and risk-taking, on course satisfaction in Project-Based Flipped Learning (PBFL). We found that female learners’ innovativeness positively influenced their perception of the project’s entertainment and educational value, which in turn increased preference for PBFL and course satisfaction. Interestingly, risk-taking did not significantly influence perceived project value, which provides insights into the role of personality traits in learning outcomes. IMPLICATIONS: Our study invigorates entrepreneurship education theory by highlighting the key role of learner innovativeness in PBFL course satisfaction, urging a nuanced examination of personality traits in educational contexts. Further, we question the established importance of risk-taking, necessitating a critical reassessment in this domain. These pivotal theoretical contributions challenge prevailing assumptions, enrich scholarly discourse, and open new avenues for research. On the practical side, our findings emphasize the imperative of fostering innovativeness in women’s entrepreneurship education. These insights underscore the need for a strategically tailored, creative learning environment, with the potential to enhance learner engagement and satisfaction significantly. In sum, our research generates transformative theoretical insights and provides actionable strategies for improving the practice of entrepreneurship education. ORIGINALITY AND VALUE: Our research presents a novel approach to fostering women entrepreneurs in the media sector through PBFL. This unique focus on the intersection of gender, media entrepreneurship, and PBFL distinguishes our study from existing literature. Furthermore, our findings offer educators invaluable guidance for enha
目的:本研究的主要目的是探讨学习者特征与基于项目的翻转学习(PBFL)方法的感知价值和满意度之间的关系。第二个目标是调查如何利用这些PBFL方法来提高妇女创业教育的质量。方法:在2018年第一学期,共有80名就读于传播社会班的学生参与了一项纵向研究,包括在学期结束前每两周进行一次在线调查。调查工具采用李克特量表测量,采用5分计分系统。获得的数据随后使用结构方程模型进行分析,这有助于检查改变前和改变后的分数及其与总体课程满意度关系的结构特性。在统计评估方面,该研究采用了通用结构化成分分析(GSCA),这是一种强大的基于组件的SEM技术,从而确保了对数据的稳健和学术严谨的解释。研究结果:我们的研究旨在了解学习者的特点,特别是创新性和冒险性,对基于项目的翻转学习(PBFL)课程满意度的影响。研究发现,女性学习者的创新能力正向影响她们对项目的娱乐价值和教育价值的感知,进而增加她们对PBFL的偏好和课程满意度。有趣的是,冒险行为对项目价值感知没有显著影响,这为人格特质在学习成果中的作用提供了见解。启示:我们的研究通过强调学习者创新在pbl课程满意度中的关键作用,推动对教育背景下人格特质的细致检查,从而激活了创业教育理论。此外,我们质疑冒险的既定重要性,需要在这一领域进行关键的重新评估。这些关键的理论贡献挑战了普遍的假设,丰富了学术话语,开辟了新的研究途径。在实践方面,我们的研究结果强调了在女性创业教育中培养创新性的必要性。这些见解强调需要一个有战略针对性的、创造性的学习环境,以显著提高学习者的参与度和满意度。总之,我们的研究产生了变革性的理论见解,并为改善创业教育的实践提供了可操作的策略。创意与价值:我们的研究提出了一种通过PBFL培养媒体行业女性企业家的新方法。这种对性别、媒体企业家精神和PBFL交叉的独特关注使我们的研究与现有文献不同。此外,我们的研究结果为教育工作者提供了加强女性创业教育的宝贵指导,从而丰富了这一领域的教学景观。

Team members’ direct participation in decision-making processes and the quality of decisions 团队成员在决策过程中的直接参与和决策的质量
Q3 BUSINESS Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.7341/20231935

PURPOSE: Do teams manage to reach better decisions than those made by individuals? Numerous studies have delivered inconclusive results. Meanwhile, participation in decision-making can take various forms and is not limited to consensus group decisions, and the influence of the various forms of participation on the quality of decisions has been less frequently examined. The aim of the research was to determine the effect on decision quality of changing the form of direct participation in the decision-making process in the case of complex, multi-stage problems. METHODOLOGY: The article presents the results of a long-term experiment in which 598 teams of 2,673 people took part. The participants were asked to solve a decision problem using three decision-making styles: autocratic, consultative, and group. The participants played the role of members of a newly established project team that must plan its own work. The task concerned a problem that requires the analysis of a number of dependencies between sub-problems, in contrast to eureka-type problems. The decision problem was new to the participants, making it impossible to apply known solutions; a creative approach was therefore required. The decision was then compared with the optimal solution established by experts. Decision quality was based on the deviation of the proposed solution from the optimal solution. FINDINGS: The results of the experiment confirm the significant synergistic potential of increasing direct participation in decision-making for complex, multi-stage problems. A significant proportion of teams made better decisions as a result of increasing direct participation – replacing autocratic decisions with consultative and group decisions. The quality of consultative decisions was roughly in the middle of autocratic and group decisions. By using group decision-making, teams made better decisions than the average individual decision and came closer to the decision quality achieved by the best team members. This effect was universal, observed both in the strongest and weakest teams. It should be remembered that, while group decision-making has the potential for synergy, it is not always achieved. Group decision-making markedly reduced the risk of making highly misguided decisions, and it can be reasoned that direct participation protects against serious mistakes more than it guarantees the best possible results. IMPLICATIONS: Team leaders should be familiar with different decision-making styles, their advantages and disadvantages, and the scope of their application. This research suggests that increasing team members’ participation to a consultative role and even better, a full participatory role, increases the quality of the decision. With the growing complexity of organizations that have to deal with accelerating change, technology development and increased competition, creating structures that can flexibly respond to the challenges of the environment requires the participation of t
目的:团队是否能比个人做出更好的决策?许多研究都给出了不确定的结果。同时,参与决策可以采取多种形式,并不局限于协商一致的群体决策,而各种形式的参与对决策质量的影响却很少得到审查。本研究的目的是确定在复杂、多阶段问题的情况下,改变直接参与决策过程的形式对决策质量的影响。方法:本文介绍了一项长期实验的结果,其中598个团队的2,673人参加了实验。参与者被要求用三种决策方式来解决一个决策问题:独裁式、协商式和团队式。参与者扮演新成立的项目团队成员的角色,该团队必须计划自己的工作。该任务涉及的问题需要分析子问题之间的许多依赖关系,而不是尤里卡类型的问题。决策问题对参与者来说是新的,因此不可能应用已知的解决方案;因此需要一种创造性的办法。然后将该决策与专家确定的最优解进行比较。决策质量是基于提出的解决方案与最优解决方案的偏差。研究结果:实验结果证实了在复杂、多阶段问题的决策中增加直接参与的显著协同潜力。由于直接参与的增加,很大一部分团队做出了更好的决策——用协商和集体决策取代专制决策。协商决策的质量大致处于专制决策和群体决策之间。通过使用群体决策,团队做出的决策比一般的个人决策更好,更接近于最佳团队成员所达到的决策质量。这种效应是普遍存在的,在最强和最弱的团队中都能观察到。应当记住,虽然群体决策具有协同作用的潜力,但并不总是能够实现。集体决策显著降低了做出高度错误决策的风险,而且可以推断,直接参与可以避免严重错误,而不是保证可能的最佳结果。启示:团队领导应该熟悉不同的决策风格,它们的优缺点,以及它们的适用范围。这项研究表明,增加团队成员的参与,使其成为一个咨询角色,甚至更好,成为一个充分参与的角色,可以提高决策的质量。随着组织日益复杂,必须应对加速变化、技术发展和日益激烈的竞争,创建能够灵活应对环境挑战的结构需要所有管理级别的团队成员的参与。对复杂和多阶段问题采用协商和小组决策方式支持这一进程。群体决策方式可以带来更好的质量,但它也有其局限性,并不是总是可以使用的。它需要一个由高度胜任的人组成的团队,这些人认同组织的利益。否则,咨询形式会带来更好的效果。独创性与价值:实证研究首次分析了协商决策的案例,即团队领导独立地咨询个人意见,最终得出最终的“团队”决策。这种方法被该领域的团队领导和管理人员广泛使用。本研究表明,这种方法比个人(专制)决策方法有所改进,但仍低于群体决策方法。最后,这项研究已经完成了最大数量的参与者团队(598个团队,2,673个人),专业活跃的研究生和超过24年的时间,允许一个健全的统计确认,当从个人转向咨询和群体决策风格时,建议的决策质量改进。

PURPOSE: Enhancing the number of entrepreneurs is a major study to combat economic and social problems. Psychological factors considered as effective stimulants for entrepreneurial behavior have attracted many researchers in the last decade. The purpose of this research attempts to examine how the influence of economic literacy can promote the intention of starting a new business among students and explore the role of entrepreneurial alertness in mediating this relationship. METHODOLOGY: The research adopted a quantitative approach in which hypotheses were statistically estimated using partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) based on survey data using a self-administered questionnaire (n=450) from several universities in Indonesia. FINDINGS: The analysis indicates that economic literacy has a significant effect on students’ entrepreneurial alertness and intention to start a new business. Indeed, entrepreneurial alertness can mediate the relationship between economic literacy and the intention of starting a new business. However, among entrepreneurial alertness dimensions, scanning and search failed in determining the students’ intention of starting a new business. IMPLICATIONS: The result of this research can provide insight into the literature on the entrepreneurship theme and policymakers concerned with delivering new business creation. Besides, educational institutions can consider the matter of economic literacy to be part of their curricula in order to foster the students’ intention of starting a business. In addition, economic literacy also needs to be associated with examples relevant to entrepreneurial activities, especially in production, distribution, and online marketing. ORIGINALITY AND VALUE: The interesting findings of this paper serve as a reminder that entrepreneurial alertness is one of the predictor variables and mediators for raising the students’ intention. This implies that entrepreneurial alertness can be enhanced by economic literacy, as well as how they need to be used to improve course curriculum and the teaching pedagogy. Furthermore, educational institutions could provide business internship programs and entrepreneurship incubators to raise the students’ intention of starting business.
目的:加强企业家队伍建设是解决经济社会问题的重大课题。心理因素被认为是创业行为的有效刺激剂,在过去十年中吸引了许多研究者。本研究旨在探讨经济素养对大学生创业意愿的影响,并探讨创业警觉性在这种关系中的中介作用。方法:本研究采用定量方法,根据印度尼西亚几所大学的问卷调查数据(n=450),使用偏最小二乘结构方程模型(PLS-SEM)对假设进行统计估计。研究发现:经济素养对大学生创业警觉性和创业意愿有显著影响。事实上,企业家的警觉性可以调解经济素养与创业意愿之间的关系。然而,在创业警觉性维度中,扫描和搜索无法确定学生的创业意愿。启示:本研究的结果可以为有关创业主题和政策制定者关注新企业创造的文献提供见解。此外,教育机构可以考虑将经济素养问题作为其课程的一部分,以培养学生创业的意愿。此外,经济素养还需要与企业活动相关的例子联系起来,特别是在生产、分销和在线营销方面。独创性与价值:本研究的有趣发现提醒我们,创业警觉性是提高大学生创业意向的预测变量和中介变量之一。这意味着企业家的警觉性可以通过经济素养来提高,以及如何利用经济素养来改进课程设置和教学方法。此外,教育机构可以提供商业实习项目和创业孵化器,以提高学生的创业意愿。
