Social Support and Self-Employment Intentions of Professional and Technical Students in India: The Moderating Role of Organizational Support
Divya Sharma; Chandan Kumar Sahoo
Journal of Education for Business, v99 n3 p155-163 2024
The purpose of this research is to study the moderating role of organizational support on the relationship between social support and self-employment intentions of professional and technical education students. A total of 418 valid responses were used for data analysis. SPSS AMOS version 24 and Process Macro version 4.2 were used to test the proposed hypotheses. The direct relationship between social support and self-employment intentions was found to be strong and significant. The moderation analysis shows that at the higher level of organizational support, social support has a significant positive impact on the self-employment intentions of the students. Subsequently, as the organizational support is lessened, the relationship becomes non-significant.
