The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has exacerbated the labour shortage, and promoting entrepreneurship to spur job creation is one of the most effective strategies to address this problem. Entrepreneurs must lengthen their employment or start-up cycles due to COVID-19 normalisation. Consequently, the impact of career willingness to delay satisfaction on entrepreneurial ambition is investigated in this research an online survey in Jiangsu Province, China. The findings show that students with a high level of career delayed contentment has a higher level of entrepreneurial intention (EI), implying that career delayed contentment intention influences EI positively. Psychological capital (PC) modifies this process, increasing the influence of job delayed satisfaction on EI by strengthening PC. PC's significant components are self-efficacy, hope, optimism, and flexibility. This study combines the willingness to wait for satisfaction with the willingness to start a business, providing a valuable reference for reducing the work condition caused by the COVID-19 epidemic.

This study examined how entrepreneurial passion and entrepreneurial self-efficacy jointly mediate the relationship between career adaptability and entrepreneurial intention. A survey was conducted with 1013 Chinese university students to assess career adaptability, entrepreneurial passion, entrepreneurial self-efficacy, and entrepreneurial intention. The findings indicated that: (1) Career adaptability, entrepreneurial passion, entrepreneurial self-efficacy, and entrepreneurial intention are interconnected in ways that suggest meaningful pathways for enhancing entrepreneurial outcomes; (2) While career adaptability does not directly influence entrepreneurial intention, it has an indirect effect through entrepreneurial self-efficacy and entrepreneurial passion, highlighting the significance of these mediators; (3) Three specific mediation pathways were identified: one through entrepreneurial passion, one through entrepreneurial self-efficacy, and a third involving both factors in a chain-mediated process-where career adaptability enhances entrepreneurial passion, which then fuels entrepreneurial self-efficacy, ultimately boosting entrepreneurial intention.

In recent years, academics and policymakers have increasingly focused on entrepreneurial behavior among university students. While existing studies have explored the entrepreneurial intention (EI) of students from various academic disciplines, few have specifically examined the EI of art university students. Based on the Diffusion of Innovations Theory (DOI) and the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), this study explores the factors influencing art university students' EI and assesses each factor's relative importance.

Objectives: The characteristics of decision-making by so-called "entrepreneurial intenders" are closely related to the success of their future entrepreneurial activity. However, it remains unclear whether individuals with high entrepreneurial intention tend to make optimal decisions, and what the neural markers of this process are in case they do so.
Methods: In this study, we recruited 561 participants to complete the Individual Entrepreneurial Intent scale.
