摘要

This study aims to design and validate an instrument to evaluate the Intrapreneurial Intentions of university students. For this purpose, the direct and positive influence that Individual Entrepreneurial Orientation exerts on the Attitude Toward Intrapreneurship and, in turn, on the Intrapreneurial Intentions of these students is analyzed. The instrument's validity and the proposed conceptual model have been studied through the multivariate method of partial least squares structural equations (PLS-SEM) in 469 university students. The results demonstrate the validity of the structural model, thus, confirming the validity of the proposed instrument because of the causal effect found between the Individual Entrepreneurial Orientation (Risk-Taking, Innovativeness, and Proactiveness) on the Attitude Toward Intrapreneurship variable and the latter's direct and positive impact on the Intrapreneurial Intentions. The most relevant implications of this study are that the higher the level of Individual Entrepreneurial Orientation in university students, the greater the possibility they will develop an Attitude Toward Intrapreneurship and, hence, the intentions to carry out intrapreneurial actions.
