Abstract

This paper presents the data that estimate the linkages between perceived regulatory support, empathy, moral obligation, social entrepreneurial self-efficacy, perceived social support, and social entrepreneurial intention among Vietnamese students. The scales were adopted from previous studies to develop the questionnaires utilizing a five-Likert scale. The sample collected from 685 undergraduate students from universities in Vietnam. A quantitative approach was utilised to examine the value of data. Specifically, some descriptive statistics was utilized to show the respondents' profiles and characteristics of variables. Cronbach' alpha, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis was used to test the reliability and validity of constructs before estimating path coefficients via structural equational modelling (SEM).

Keywords: Empathy; Moral obligation; Perceived regulatory support; Social entrepreneurial intention; Social entrepreneurial self-efficacy.
