The Mediating Role of Religiosity, Self-Efficacy, Moral Obligation in Prior Experience on Social Entrepreneurial Intention: Undergraduate Student Managing Country Indonesia

Open access
This research aims to analyze the influence of self-efficacy, moral Obligation, and Religiosity as mediators in the relationship between prior experience and social entrepreneurial intention in the student population in Indonesia. The research sample consisted of 507 students from various state and private universities in Indonesia (Google Form-based survey). Data was analyzed using the SEM PLS Structural Equation Model (SEM) method. The results of the research show that previous experience (prior experience) has a significant positive influence on social entrepreneurial intention in Indonesian students. These results indicate that students who have previous experience in a social entrepreneurial context are more likely to have the intention to engage in social entrepreneurial activities in the future. Furthermore, the findings of this research also show that self-efficacy and moral obligation act as mediators in the relationship between prior experience and social entrepreneurial intention. This illustrates that students' level of self-efficacy and feelings of moral obligation can mediate the positive impact of previous experiences on their intention to engage in social entrepreneurship. However, the role of Religiosity as a mediator was not proven to be significant in this study.
