Relationship between the Components of Social Intelligence and Entrepreneurial Intention among Bangladeshi University Students
Abstract
Purpose:
This study examines the relationship between different components of social intelligence, including situational awareness, situational response, cognitive empathy, and social skills and their influence on the entrepreneurial intentions of university students in Bangladesh. Exploring how the components of social intelligence affect students' entrepreneurial intentions can provide important insights for various stakeholders, especially since entrepreneurship is often considered a vital means to tackle the pressing challenges of unemployment and economic growth in developing nations like Bangladesh.
Research Methods:
This study employed a quantitative research design and implemented a structured questionnaire to gather data from 253 university students in Bangladesh. The data were analyzed with SPSS 29 to assess the impact of each component of social intelligence on the entrepreneurial intentions of university students in Bangladesh.
