Öğrencilerin Kariyer Planlamalarında Girişimcilik, Profesyonellik ve liderlik Arzularının Ölçülmesi(Measuring Entrepreneurship, Professionalism and Leadership Career Aspiration of Students in Career Planning)

Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to confirm EPL (Entrepreneurship, professionalism and leadership) scale, which is developed by Chan et.al. (2012) for Turkish students. EPL scale measures students’ tendencies towards these components based on their motivation, efficacy and intent. Scale is used by the consent of Kim Yin Chan and results of the surveys are computed in terms of sums of scores as told by the evaluation scheme given by Chan. These summed scores are used in all analyses. EPL scale is composed of three main factors, namely motivation, intent and efficacy. Each main factor has three sub-factors: Entrepreneurship, professionalism and leadership. By a survey study on 903 of Manisa Celal Bayar University students, original EPL scale is examined by second order confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and re-designed to fit Turkish students.
