Item Perceived Entrepreneurial Behaviour as Predictor of Entrepreneurial Intention among University of Ibadan Undergraduate Students(Department of Educational Foundations & Counseling, Obafemi Awolowo University Ile Ife, Nigeria., 2018) Johnson, Tunde Oyeleke; Ojewumi, Kehinde Aderemi; Adedayo, Olufunmilayo; Ajibewa, Segun; Ibrahim, Bashirat Abiodun; Oguntayo, Rotimi; Faworaja, OmolaraABSTRACT This study investigated the influence of perceived entrepreneurial behaviour (PEB) as predictor of entrepreneurial intention (EI) among university of Ibadan undergraduate students. Cross-sectional research design was adopted for the study where 341 participants were selected through accidental sampling technique using structured questionnaire that measured PEB as predictor of EI. Zero order correlation and t-test for independent sample and analysis of variance were used at p≤0.05 significant level. Findings revealed that significant relationship existed between perceived entrepreneurial behaviour and EI at {r=.758; p<.01); Participants with high level of perceived entrepreneurial behaviour scored significantly higher on EI t (338) = -3.493; P<.05). Regression analysis showed that age, sex, level in school, parental educational background and PEB jointly predicted entrepreneurial intention (R = .264; R2 =.070; F (5,334) = 5.010; p<.05). The study recommended that acquisition of skills and abilities by students should be encouraged as it will boost the individual self-efficacy and eventually lead to acts of innovation, creativity and exploration of the environment.
