Sample consisted of 438 (Males = 166, Females =272) 3rd and 4th year university students from four Public Universities in Malaysia. Standardized instruments were used to measure the constructs. The findings showed that basic psychological needs fulfilment influenced students’ entrepreneurial intention through its proximal attitudinal predictors.
