Abstract
This study analyzes the role of inspiration and learning in entrepreneurial interest moderated by attitude variables. The Indonesian government has set a target for the number of national entrepreneurs, but it has not been achieved so far. This condition will be the same if there is no process of obtaining inspiration and learning through an entrepreneurial attitude.
Forming a positive entrepreneurial attitude can increase inspiration and
learning. To get data about entrepreneurial interest in Indonesia, researchers used a descriptive quantitative method on 60 respondents whom researchers met face-to-face and virtually. The data collection process used a cross-sectional survey approach. The data collected were analyzed using the path analysis method and SmartPLS software. Based on the results of the analysis, inspiration directly influences entrepreneurial attitudes. Besides that, there is a direct effect of learning on entrepreneurial attitudes. Furthermore, there is a direct influence on entrepreneurial interest. Then, there is an indirect influence of inspiration on entrepreneurial interest through entrepreneurial attitudes. Finally, there is an indirect effect of learning on entrepreneurial interest. After being analyzed, the direct impact of attitude on entrepreneurial interest is more significant than the indirect effect of learning on entrepreneurial interest. The weakness of this study is the limited sample, so future researchers should conduct research on a larger sample, particularly in various industrial sectors.
