What the paper says

The literature on entrepreneurial intention among university students has largely been grounded in attitudinal models that rely on instruments with limited multidimensional coverage and contextual sensitivity. This study proposes and validates a scale that integrates psychological, educational, and social dimensions. The instrument was administered to a sample of 1,141 students from the Faculty of Accounting and Business Administration at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). Exploratory factor analysis identified six factors accounting for 65.78% of the variance. The findings highlight the need to strengthen entrepreneurial competencies within the university context. The study also examines the influence of the family environment and offers practical implications for curriculum design and entrepreneurship education.
