Abstract

This study explores how students from low-income families with no prior entrepreneurial experience engage in conditional student entrepreneurship (CSE). Longitudinal data from 30 undergraduates across two Nigerian public universities revealed that resource constraints and significant loss events threaten students’ educational pursuits. However, rather than dropping out to pursue unskilled jobs, the students opt for CSE to generate income and persist in their education. Through the findings, a model of CSE for financial stability was developed to shed light on an overlooked phenomenon in emerging economies. The findings contribute to academic, policy, and practical implications.

新兴经济体有条件学生创业纵向研究

本研究探讨了没有创业经验的低收入家庭学生如何参与有条件学生创业（CSE）。来自尼日利亚两所公立大学 30 名本科生的纵向数据显示，资源限制和重大损失事件威胁着学生的教育追求。然而，这些学生并没有辍学去从事非技术性工作，而是选择 CSE 来创收并坚持学业。通过研究结果，我们建立了一个以 CSE 促进财务稳定的模型，以揭示新兴经济体中一个被忽视的现象。研究结果对学术、政策和实践都有帮助。
