摘要：This study aimed to examine the roles of growth need strength and the perceived
benefits of innovation as antecedent predictors of students’ intentions to participate in
patent activities using the theory of planned behaviour (TPB). This study compared
three models that predicted business and management students’ intentions to perform
patent activities. Results from structural equation modelling applied to undergraduate
students supported that the effects of growth need strength and the perceived benefits
of innovation influenced students’ intentions through a TPB model with the
antecedents of attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. The
research proposed model was superior to the other models and explained 74% of the
variance in behavioral intentions to engage in patent activities. Implications and
directions for future research are discussed.
