Abstrakt: This study investigates the direct effects of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial intention, attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control, as well as its indirect effects on entrepreneurial intention through changes in elements of the theory of planned behaviour (TPB). An experimental design with a pre-test-post-test group was undertaken with 219 business students from a public Greek university who participated in the survey. The data were analysed using SPSS version 24 and MEMORE macro, which calculates mediation and moderation models for two-instance within repeated measure designs (Montoya, 2019). Results indicated that entrepreneurship education affected changes in perceived behavioural control and entrepreneurial intention in a positive manner. Also, it was found that entrepreneurship education affects entrepreneurial intention through the effects of education on perceived behavioural control. In this study, MEMORE macro was used to uncover new relationships between variables, which will contribute to the field of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial education.
