Abstract

This paper aims to identify the determinants of entrepreneurial intention among Algerian students. so that
entrepreneurship has become the source of interest of many countries because it has been considered a key
issue of economic growth and development through job creation, revenue generation, and hence wealth
creation, Since most literature agreed that entrepreneurial intention can be determined by using Theory of
Planned Behavior (TPB) and Event Theory, So that we used the theoreticians in our study to arrive at
identifying 6 external variables there are personality traits, social recognition, self-efficacy, training and
entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurial attitude. To achieve this purpose we used a questionnaire, which
was distributed, to about 120 students from the University of Sidi Bel Abbès, while only 100 valid
questionnaires were analyzed through Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM).the
result showed that personality traits, self-efficacy, and entrepreneurial attitude had a positive significant
effect on entrepreneurial intention and that the effects of social recognition and training and entrepreneurial
education are not significant.
