초록

최근 기업가정신교육은 청년대학생들의 창업에 대한 도전정신 함양과 창업환경 조성을 위해 세계적으로 주목을 받아 오고 있다. 특히 많은 나라의 대학교에서는 대학생들에게 취업의 대안으로 창업을 고려하게 하는 교육수단으로서 기업가정신 교육을 강화해 오고 있다. 국가 간 비교연구에 기반을 두고 진행한 본 연구는 한국과 중국의 대학생들을 대상으로 대학교에서 제공하는 기업가정신교육과 대학생들의 자기효능감이 창업활동과 밀접한 관계에 있는 창업의도에 유의한 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보고자 하였다. 특히 자기효능감이 기업가 정신교육과 창업의도사이에 유의한 조절역할을 하는지에 초점을 맞추어 진행하였다. 연구결과 기업가정신교육과 대학생들의 자기효능감은 한국과 중국 모두 창업의도에 유의한 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 자기효능감의 조절효과를 확인하기 위해 창업의도에 대한 기업가정신교육과 자기효능감의 상호작용효과를 검증한 결과 한국의 경우 자기효능감이 창업의도에 유의한 조절역할을 하고 있는 것으로 나타난 반면 중국의 경우 유의하지 않음을 보이고 있었다. 이에 따라 한국대학생의 경우 창업에 대한 자기효능감이 중국 대학생들에 비해 더욱 중요함을 알 수 있었다. 마지막으로 본 연구결과에 대한 논의 및 이론적, 실무적 시사점을 제시해 두었다.

Understanding key factors that affect entrepreneurial intention of university students is important to establish effective pedagogy for educating potential entrepreneurs. This cross-cultural study examines the direct effects of entrepreneurship education and self-efficacy on entrepreneurial intention of university students, and further examined how self-efficacy interacts with an entrepreneurship education in promoting entrepreneurial intention of Korean and Chinese university students. Empirical findings of this study suggest that entrepreneurship education and self-efficacy affect significantly entrepreneurial intention of university students in both countries. The proposed moderation effect of self-efficacy was supported for Korea but not China. The implications of the study were discussed and presented in terms of theoretical and practical aspects.
