FİNANSAL OKURYAZARLIK VE GİRİŞİMCİLİK NİYETİ: ÜNİVERSİTE ÖĞRENCİLERİ ÜZERİNE BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Abstract

In this study, the relationship between financial literacy levels of university students and their entrepreneurial intentions were investigated. For this purpose, a questionnaire was administered to 400 undergraduate students studying at the different faculties of the University of Gaziantep. The financial literacy levels of the students were measured in three dimensions in the questionnaire, namely basic economics and finance knowledge, financial statements knowledge and investment knowledge. As a result of the analyses performed on the collected data, it was found that the entrepreneurial intentions of students differ according to their gender, faculty and year. Also, a positive relationship was found between financial literacy level and how attractive students find entrepreneurship. On the other hand, it was found that financial literacy doesn't affect entrepreneurship intention. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
