Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Multiple Linear Regression Analysis were also conducted to observe independent variables. Findings of the study revealed that all the variables, have significant effects on entrepreneurial intention. Recommendations for the future

Moreover, future researchers can include other variables such as family business background, prior business experience or personality traits to get better research outcomes.
