The purpose of this study was to empirically examine the relationships among the constructs of entrepreneurial career intentions, emotional intelligence, and entrepreneurial self-efficacy. The author used structural equation modeling with a sample of 218 business students to test the hypotheses. The results suggest that (1) the greater the perception of emotional intelligence the greater the entrepreneurial career intentions and (2) the greater the entrepreneurial self-efficacy the greater the entrepreneurial career intentions. The author then discusses practical applications and areas for future research.
