Intention Of Students Research Articles

Dropout intent of students with disabilities

We examine the mechanisms explaining the dropout intentions of students with disabilities by integrating Tinto’s model of student integration, the student attrition model, the composite persistence model, and insights from social stratification research. The resulting theoretical model posits that not only students’ academic and social integration, but also their private resources (financial, home learning, and personal resources) are crucial for academic success. Analysing data from a 2020 Germany-wide student survey, we find that students with disabilities are substantially more likely to intend to drop out of higher education than students without disabilities. Linear regressions and Kitagawa-Oaxaca-Blinder decompositions show that their lower academic integration and fewer personal resources are most relevant for explaining this difference, while their lower social integration, home learning, and financial resources play subordinate roles. Further analyses reveal that dropout intent is highest among students with psychic disabilities, followed by students with learning disabilities and students with physical disabilities. Regarding all three disability groups, less academic integration and fewer personal resources are most relevant for explaining their higher dropout intent (compared to students without disabilities). However, the disability groups differ regarding the importance of the different explanatory factors. Overall, our results highlight the importance of considering both students’ integration into higher education and their private resources for understanding student-group-specific dropout intent.

포스트 코로나 시대 항공서비스 전공 대학생의 학업스트레스가 자기효능감, 중도탈락의도에 미치는 영향

In this study, we attempted to conduct an empirical study on the effect of academic stress and self-efficacy on the dropout intention of college students majoring in airline services. The survey was conducted through a total of 200 questionnaires from Aug 28th to Sep 11th in 2023. Data from an survey of 188 valid samples were collected with SPSS 18.0. program and AMOS 18.0 program presented the evidence for a reasonable level of validity and reliability of this model. The results are as follows. First, among academic stress, emotional exhaustion and cynicism did not have a negative effect on self-efficacy. On the other hand, decreased efficacy was found to have a negative effect on self-efficacy. Second, self-efficacy was found to have a negative effect on school intention, student intention, and parent intention on dropout intention. Third, self-efficacy was found to have a mediating effect between decreased efficacy and dropout intention. The significance of this study is to find ways to maintain college life by increasing self- efficacy in order to prevent college students majoring in airline services in the post-corona era from having the intention of dropping out while experiencing academic stress. Through this, we are seeking ways to reduce the intention to drop out by increasing the self-efficacy of college students at local universities that are facing a crisis due to a decrease in the school-age population.

대학 비교과교육과정에 대한 학생 인식

This study analyzes how students who participate in non-curriculum perceive the non-curriculum, which is very important for students to develop competencies required in today’s rapidly changing social environment. Students at a university located in the metropolitan area participated in the survey questionnaire utilized in this study. Results indicate the following. First, only 16.39% of the students had participated in non-curriculum, which was not particularly high. Second, as a result of analyzing students’ perception of the need and their participation in non-curriculum, perceived need was much higher than participation in all stages and types of programs. The stages and types of non-curriculum that needed to be improved immediately were learning research projects, competitive exhibitions, and contests belonging to the experience-oriented flourishing stage. Third, compared with the students who had not participated in non-curriculum, the students who had participated in non-curriculum perceived the need of the non-curriculum much more. In addition, as a result of analyzing the actual participation of students who participated in non-curriculum compared to the future participation intent of students who did not participate, the intention to participate was lower than the actual participation. Based on the above research results, the following suggestions were made in this study. To increase students’ participation rate in non-curriculum, it is necessary to link their experience of participation in non-curriculum with scholarships or major curriculum certification systems and continue to provide education about non-curriculum to the professors. Through performance analysis and student demand survey of current non-curriculum, it is suggested to operate various programs that the students want and need, to support non-curriculum tailored to gender, grade, and college characteristics, and to expand community-linked non-curriculum.

Association between psychological distress and mental help-seeking intentions in international students of national university of Singapore: a mediation analysis of mental health literacy.

International students encounter a wide range of challenges that can have a significant impact on their mental health. Seeking help is one of the primary means of managing mental health, and more attention is required. This study aimed to investigate the psychological distress(PD), mental health literacy(MHL), and mental help-seeking intentions(MHSI) in international students of National University of Singapore(NUS), to explore the correlation between the three and to verify the mediating role of MHL in PD and MHSI. This cross-sectional study was conducted between May and July 2023 using the Mental Help Seeking Intention Scale(MHSIS), Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7(GAD-7), and Mental Health Literacy Scale(MHLS). 281 international students(177 males, 104 females;) in NUS completed self-report questionnaires. SPSS 25.0 was applied to the data for descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and stepwise regression analysis. Mediation analysis fully for all potential confounding factors were conducted. Significant correlations were found between PD, MHL and MHSI. MHLS- knowledge of how to seek professional information(MHLS- H) completely mediated the association of anxiety with MHSI[B=-0.271; 95% confidence interval(CI): (-0.067, 0.0037)]; MHLS- attitude that promote recognition or appropriate help-seeking behavior(stigma)(MHLS- H) partially mediated the association of PD with MHSI[B = 0.104, 95% CI: (0.008, 0.179)]; with mediating effects accounting for 100% and 24.847% of the total effect. In addition, demographic variables such as gender, years in Singapore and residence type mediated both the direct and indirect effect of the mediation model. MHL mediated both the direct and indirect effects on the association between PD and MHSI, especially, the mediator of the MHLS- H and MHL-A. It means that MHSI in this population can be improved by increasing MHL and thus the PD. The findings suggest that, such as providing information about how to access to professional services and promoting disorder recognition to the international students, may help them develop their psychological well-being and good mental health care decisions.

GENERATING GREEN ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTION THROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL ATTITUDE

In line with the achievement of sustainable development goals (SDGs), environmentally friendly business is a new challenge in carrying out entrepreneurial activities. Research on the relationship between environmental attitudes and the formation of student intentions in green entrepreneurship is necessary. Entrepreneurship students at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Tarumanagara, were involved as respondents (n = 280) using a convenience sampling technique. The purpose of this study was to determine students' intentions in green entrepreneurship activities by considering environmental attitude variables proxied through the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) in the preparation of instruments. The results of the validity test showed that only 10 indicators could be maintained as a measure of environmental attitudes with a Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.892 and a composite reliability of 0.911 so that both were in the satisfactory category. The results of structural regression testing show a significant effect of environmental attitudes on green entrepreneurship intentions at a significance level of 5 percent. R-square of 24.60 percent indicates the large contribution of environmental attitudes to this intention. The mechanism of the relationship between attitudes and intentions is in accordance with the theory of planned behavior while the transformation in the aspect of environmental sustainability is in line with the triple bottom line theory. Based on these results, it can be adapted to an educational approach or involving stakeholders in an entrepreneurship learning approach as a support for achieving Indonesia's SDGs in 2030.

Findings from a survey looking at attitudes towards AI and its use in teaching, learning and research

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is having an advancing dramatic impact on Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) in Higher Education. (Popenici & Kerr, 2017) observed an emergence of the use of AI in HE (Higher Education) and pinpointed challenges for institutions and students including issues of academic integrity, privacy and “the possibility of a dystopian future” (p. 11). Potential benefits of AI in HE includes creating learning communities through chatbots (Studente & Ellis, 2020), automated grading, individualized learning strategies and improved plagiarism detection (Owoc et al., 2019). It is unclear how often, and in what manner, students are engaging with AI during their learning and in creating submissions for assessments tasks and if this engagement is creating unrealistic outcomes. It is also unclear how educators are engaging with AI during their teaching and curriculum/assessment design and how this may be impacting the learning outcomes of their cohorts. This research study was conducted to investigate the perceived immediate and long-term implications of engaging with AI of both staff and students on learning and teaching within the University of Adelaide. The design of the research study is underpinned by a blended approach combining Situational Ethics and Planned Behavior Theory to understand the ethical considerations and behavioral activities and future intentions of staff and students regarding the use of AI. Situational Ethics provides a framework for examining the contextual nature of ethical decision-making regarding AI (Boddington, 2017; Memarian & Doleck, 2023). Planned Behavior Theory provides understanding of individuals' motivation and rationalization to engage with AI (Wang et al., 2022). By employing a mixed qualitative and quantitative design, collecting data via online surveys, the study's findings shed light on the ethical challenges and attitudes associated with AI implementation in higher education and provided insights into the factors that influence staff and students’ individual intentions to engage with AI technologies in Learning and Teaching. Participants from all faculties across a wide diversity of student cohorts and staff responded to the surveys. Initial findings reveal educators are suspecting a greater student use of AI than the data demonstrates. The most frequent use of AI by students is for checking grammar and this is more prominent in the international student cohort. Students trust their human educators more than AI for course content and feedback on assessments. Educators are comfortable using AI but feel also they need greater support and training. The majority of students (70%, n=126) are not concerned about the implications of using Generative AI in higher education, regarding issues related to privacy, bias, ethics, or discrimination. However, demonstrating an active concern in this field, the most common use of AI by university staff is to test its capabilities to complete assignments. These and other findings from the study can provide guidance to staff and students by describing current practices and making recommendations regarding assessment, curriculum design, and Learning and Teaching (L&T) activities.

Research on Entrepreneurial Intention of College Students Under the Background of Platform Economy

The paper reviews the influence of platform economy on the entrepreneurial intention of college students in recent years, and summarizes the factors and mechanisms that affect the entrepreneurial intention of college students under the background of platform economy. Based on the technology acceptance model and the theory of planned behavior, many studies suggest that perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, entrepreneurial attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavior control may affect college students' entrepreneurial intention. To encourage college students to participate in platform economy entrepreneurship, educators and policymakers need to pay attention to improving college students' perception of the ease and usefulness of starting a business using digital platforms, cultivating their positive entrepreneurial attitudes, and improving their perceived behavioral control. This may be achieved by providing entrepreneurship education and training, as well as creating an environment that encourages self-drive and self-control.

Students’ online learning adaptability and their continuous usage intention across different disciplines

Online learning, as a pivotal element in modern education, is introducing fresh demands and challenges to the established teaching norms across various subjects. The adaptability of students to online learning and their sustained willingness to engage with it constitute two pivotal factors influencing the effective operation of online education systems. The dynamic relationship between these aspects may manifest unique traits within different academic disciplines, yet comprehensive research in this area remains notably scarce. In light of this, this study constructs an Adaptive Structural Learning and Technology Acceptance Model (ASL-TAM) with satisfaction towards online teaching as the mediating variable to investigate the impact and mechanism of online learning adaptivity on continuous usage intention for students from different disciplines. A total of 11,832 undergraduate students from 334 universities in 12 disciplinary categories in mainland China were selected, and structural equation modeling was used for analysis. The results showed that the ASL-TAM model could be fitted for all 12 disciplines. The perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and system environment adaptability dimensions of online learning adaptivity significantly and positively affect satisfaction towards online teaching and continuous usage intention. Satisfaction towards online teaching partially mediates the relationship between online learning adaptivity and continuous usage intention. There were significant differences in the results of the single-factor analysis of the observed variables for the 12 disciplines, and the path coefficients in the ASL-TAM model fitted for each discipline were also significantly different. Compared to the six disciplines under the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) category, six disciplines under the humanities category exhibited more significant internal differences in the results of the single-factor analysis of perceived usefulness and the path coefficients for satisfaction towards online teaching. This research seeks to bridge existing research gaps and provide novel guidance and recommendations for the personalized design and distinctive implementation of online learning platforms and courses across various academic disciplines.

The results of this study indicate that HB, HM, and RE, have a significant influence on the intention to use mobile banking BI. While EE, FC, PE, and SI are not accepted and have no significant effect on the intention to use mobile banking BI, so that the HB, and intention using BI, has a significant effect on using mobile banking UB while FC is not accepted and has no significant effect on using mobile banking

The influence of narrative transportation on university students' environmental intentions: A serial mediation of empathy with nature and environmental Attitudes

This paper aims to explain how narrative transportation influences the environmental intentions of university students at five universities in Hebei, China. It also examines the mediating roles of empathy with nature and environmental attitudes, as well as the serial role. A survey was conducted involving 347 university students to test the proposed hypotheses. This was followed by a qualitative approach that involved examining interviews. The study findings indicate that narrative transportation directly and indirectly influences environmental intentions. Additionally, empathy with nature and environmental attitudes have an indirect impact on environmental intentions through the serial role, enhancing environmental intentions. The novelty of this research model lies in the environmental education-centered operationalization of narrative transportation theory. The use of a mixed-methods approach in this study contributes to a better understanding of the proposed relationships and offers concrete suggestions for educational practices.

Exploring Medical Students’ Rural Intention on Course Entry

Understanding the rural intentions of medical students has the potential to improve the effective allocation of rural clinical placements, the demand for which regularly exceeds availability. Longitudinal studies on students’ rural intentions have been published but a refined understanding of the spectrum of intentions is absent in the literature. To fully understand students’ rural intentions, and the factors influencing those intentions, comprehensive research, at all stages of a student’s academic career, is required. The project used for this article, identifies a group with neutral intention and explores the influence of a range of demographic factors and variety of rural experience for their potential to move students towards high rural intention. The study also identifies trends in student perceptions of potential locations for rural practice in Western Australia. This more detailed approach is offered as a basis for a future model to inform the allocation of scarce rural placement opportunities, known to be significant in converting rural intention into practice. The project responds to increasingly frequent calls for changes to policy and practice regarding the allocation of rural clinical placements to better realise their value in improving the maldistribution of Australia’s medical workforce. The study suggests that a greater range of indicators, beyond being of rural origin, can lead to neutral or high rural intention. The results of this study suggest a model that incorporates these additional elements and tracks their development over time would be a valuable component in initiatives aimed at building positive rural intention.

GPT revolution and digital entrepreneurial intentions

Purpose Generative pretrained transformers (GPTs), soaring to one million users at lightning speed, outpaced social media giants (15 times faster) (Buchholz, 2023). Despite this, scant research explored GPT’s impact on the digital entrepreneurial intentions (EIs) of students and tech-savvy generations. This study aims to pioneer a fusion of the technology acceptance model (TAM) and the theory of planned behavior (TPB), bridging the gap in research. Design/methodology/approach In this bold quantitative quest, business administration students became fearless participants, engaging in a survey of profound significance. Guided by the mighty powers of G*Power and Stata’s structural equation modeling builder, the intricate relationships within a robust sample of (n = 400) were unraveled. Findings The mediating power of GPT usefulness and GPT ease of use part of the TAM emerges, paving the way for a future brimming with digital entrepreneurship (DE) boundless possibilities. Predictably, the study found that TPB constructs also affect the EI of students. Originality/value This groundbreaking study brings together the powerful combination of TAM and TPB, while pioneering the exploration of GPT models’ mediating role. Its findings offer invaluable contributions to the field of DE and policymakers.

Entrepreneurial Intention of University Students under the Perspective of the Theory of Planned Behaviour: Integrative Literature Review

(1) Background: In a competitive and globalised world, retaining immigrants in entrepreneurial universities is an underutilised asset, one that allows economic development to be better enabled. Thus, studying the entrepreneurial intention (EI) of students enables the development of practices and public policies. (2) Purpose: Although the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) is not a recent approach, its theoretical framework was considered consistent to understand the entrepreneurial intention (EI) of university students, considering the geographic region of origin. (3) Methods: This article is an integrative literature review. The database consulted was the Web of Science. Works available in full until 2022 that addressed at least two TPB antecedents were included. Works that were not articles that included university students were excluded. (4) Results: The articles analysed confirm the predictive power of the theory. However, more standardised studies need to address the role of variables. The African results showed a greater entrepreneurial attitude; Americans and Asians perceived greater behavioural control; and the subjective norm was stronger among Africans. (5) Originality: This work contributes to fomenting attention to this field, providing the development of theories, and suggesting avenues for future research. The authors did not find a literature review on the subject.

Entrepreneurial Intentions: A Comparative Study of African and European University Economics Students

ABSTRACT Businesses started by well-educated people are considered a driving force for a country’s development. Many studies have examined the entrepreneurial intentions of university students in different countries. However, only a few studies have investigated the differences in such intentions between students in developed and developing countries, especially African countries. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine whether African university economics students are interested in becoming entrepreneurs compared to their counterparts from developed countries in the EU. We compared students’ intentions to become entrepreneurs using a large quantitative dataset obtained from university students from the 2018 GUESSS international survey. Testing four hypotheses, we found a statistically significant difference in entrepreneurial intentions between EU and African students. In general, we can say that African students have a more positive attitude toward their own entrepreneurship than their fellow EU students.

Impact of Psychological Capital and Social Capital on Social Entrepreneurial Intention through Social Entrepreneurial Outcome Expectations

This study aims to investigate the influence of psychological capital and social capital on the social entrepreneurial intentions of students through social entrepreneurial outcome expectations. The study employs partial least squares structural equation modelling to evaluate data from 753 students. The results indicate direct impacts of social entrepreneurial outcome expectations on social entrepreneurial intentions. Furthermore, the research supports the hypothesis that social entrepreneurial outcome expectations mediate the relationship between psychological capital, social capital, and social entrepreneurial intention. The study suggests policymakers and higher educators should increase awareness of the outcomes of being a social entrepreneur and the important role of social business in society. Educational programmes that increase social capital and nurture psychological capital should also be considered to impact social entrepreneurial intentions positively.
