RESEARCH AND TRENDS IN THE STUDIES OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP EDUCATION: A REVIEW OF SELECTED JOURNALS

Abstract

Entrepreneurship education (EE) is a growing research field with increasingly diverse topics and complex methodologies. This paper examined ten recent quantitative studies in EE by comparing and contrasting their research areas, methodologies and data analysis methods. This paper also identifies five research areas in EE and discusses the trend of EE research in general, in which survey designs and the use of structural equation modeling (SEM) are common in the reviewed studies. Furthermore, this paper highlights the lacunae in the selected studies and suggests the directions for future research in EE. Tabulated comparison and the summary of the selected studies are also presented at the end of this paper.
