The results showed that the attitude factor (autonomy and authority, economic opportunity and challenge, self realization and participation, social environment and career and perceived confidence) have a significant effect on entrepreneurial intentions while (security and work load, avoid responsibility) have no significant effect on entrepreneurial intentions. Contextual factors (entrepreneurship education, academic encouragement and environmental encouragement) have a significant effect on entrepreneurial intentions, while social incentives do not significantly affect entrepreneurial intentions.
