ABSTRACT
Unemployment is a problem that is often debated in the economic and business activities of a
country. The lower the unemployment rate, the more capital there is to drive the wheels of
progress. The quantity of new workers will continue to increase to coincide with the ongoing
political, demographic, trade, cultures and vitality/health processes.
In SMK occupational skills are vocational skills related to certain jobs. Occupational skills
bring graduates closer to today reality and prepare students to find alternative options to overcome
life's problems without being depressed. The provision of entrepreneurial skills in the automotive
sector is expected to be used to find income in the future.
The low interest in entrepreneurship in vocational students is due to lack of confidence so that
students are less able to block the obstacles that arise. Thus, only students who try to face
challenges and have unyielding intelligence who have high intentions in entrepreneurship. The
intelligence in question is not only scientific insight, but there is something more influential,
namely adversity intelligence or unyielding intelligence.
The results of this study indicate that (1) there is a correlation between adversity intelligence
and the entrepreneurial intention of class XII students of TKR SMKN 11 Malang, (2) there is a
correlation between occupational skills and entrepreneurial intentions of class XII students of
SMKN 11 Malang, and (3) there is a correlation between adversity intelligence and occupational
skills on the entrepreneurial intentions of class XII students of TKR SMKN 11 Malang.
With occupational skills and supported by adversity intelligence, it is able to make a positive
contribution to students entrepreneurial interests, more specifically that occupational skills
supported by adversity intelligence are able to increase students entrepreneurial intentions in the
Light Vehicle Engineering Skills Competence.

INTRODUCTION
The unemployment rate in Indonesia,
which previously decreased for 5 years, will
increase with the Covid-19 pandemic. The
increase in unemployment was due to heavy
pressure from various business sectors.
Currently, KEMNAKER (Ministry of
Manpower of the Republic of Indonesia) and
BPJS (Social Security Administering
Agency) Manpower have recorded that there
are more than 2.8 million workers affected
by the Covid-19 pandemic (Juaningsi, 2020).
Many workers were laid off and
companies were in danger of going out of
business. A total of 114,340 companies have
laid off workers and laid off workers with a
total of 1,943,916 workers. Economic
growth in Indonesia will be limited if the
right prevention strategies are not
implemented to deal with the Covid-19
pandemic. The Indonesian Minister of
Finance has anticipated this. Economic
growth is likely to fall to 2.50%-0%.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, it is
actually like a double-edged knife as a
barrier for MSME activities (Micro, Small
and Medium Enterprises) but if it is
processed with good technology skills and
literacy, it will be an opportunity for profit
for business actors with the condition that
everything must be done. at home. The
importance of business management for
business people in the MSME sector can be
seen in several areas of strengthening
management, namely marketing, HR
(Human Resources), finance and operations.
In addition, in the marketing sector, it is
necessary to develop a digital marketing
system that is targeted and accessible to the
wider community. In the field of
strengthening human resource management,
increasing knowledge, ideas and skills so
that they are able to run their business in a
more planned and organized manner.
Business actors or MSME actors in
the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic must be
good at using social media technology to
keep running a business or business. Thus,
everything that was previously obtained by
means of direct transactions can be changed
in the form of transactions on social media,
this simply turns a challenge into an
opportunity to gain maximum profit.
"A country can be said to be
prosperous if it has a number of
businessmen or entrepreneurs as much as
two percent of the total population (Suryana,
2010: 7). However, the reality is that
Indonesia still has few business people and
is not commensurate with its population. As
a result, the increasing number of educated
unemployment in Indonesia, the more the
importance of the entrepreneurial world is
felt.
The government will not be able to
work on all aspects of development because
it really needs a budget, personnel and
supervision. The more entrepreneurs there
are, one of the important indicators in a
country's economy can be fulfilled, namely
the low unemployment rate (Suryana, 2010:
140).
Entrepreneurial intention is a person's
tendency towards entrepreneurial intentions
and interests that lead to entrepreneurial
behavior (Handayani, 2016: 92).
Occupational skills are vocational skills
related to a particular job. This is what
needs to be strengthened. Occupational
skills bring graduates closer to the real
world and equip students to find alternative
solutions to life's problems without being
pressured. (Depdiknas, 2003:59).
Adversity intelligence is the ability to face
any obstacle and turn it into an opportunity.
(Stoltz, 2017).

Y. (3) Furthermore, the results of the
multiple regression test, namely the
coefficient value of 0.000 indicates that X1
and X2 have a positive influence on Y.
DISCUSSION
Correlation of Adversity Intelligence on
Entrepreneurial Intentions of Class XII
TKR Students
From the results of the descriptive table
it can be seen that the correlation between
entrepreneurial intentions or interest with
adversity intelligence of class XII TKR
students is in the sufficient category. The
category is sufficient here in the sense that
the level of adversity intelligence in class
XIIstudents is
TKRin the sufficient category, which is not
too high and not too low in dealing with
problems or difficulties, many factors affect
the sufficient category, such as limited
capital, where to become an entrepreneur
Adequate capital is needed, and in general a
student who wants to try entrepreneurship
tends to complain because he lacks capital
and this is an important aspect that hinders
the emergence of interest in
entrepreneurship.
Furthermore, lack of motivation or
support from family. Where most parents
prefer their children to become employees
because they have financial guarantees every
month. Conversely, if doing business, it
requires a lot of capital and there is no
certainty whether profit or loss.
Finally, lack of determination and
willpower or lack of self-confidence, self-
confidence affects students not to dare to try
to set up a business. This self-doubt is due to
the fear of failure when starting a business.
Worry or fear of failure should not be a
barrier to starting a business. On the
contrary, this feeling should be an
encouragement for students to better prepare
their business as well as possible so as not to
fail.
From the results of the analysis in
chapter IV, it shows that there is a positive
relationship between entrepreneurial
intentions and adversity intelligence
significantly (p = 0.00) with a correlation
coefficient (r = 0.577) and sufficient
correlation strength so that it can be
interpreted that adversity intelligence has an
effective contribution to intentions.

Correlation Occupational Skill to
Entrepreneurial Intentions of Class XII
TKR Students
From the results of the descriptive table
it can be seen that the correlation between
entrepreneurial intentions or interests and
the occupational skills of Class XII TKR
students is in the sufficient category.
Category is sufficient here in the sense that
the level of occupational skills for class XII
TKR students is in the sufficient category,
namely not too high and not too low in
expertise or skills to do a job that is only
obtained from practical activities or
experience, many factors affect the sufficient
category such as, interest can be a
motivating factor to learn and develop a skill

or skill of a person. A person's skills tend to
appear when he has a high interest in these
skills or abilities. Where interest provides
encouragement and motivation for someone
to develop their skills.
Furthermore, practice is the key to
success. Where skills can develop if
previously doing the exercise repeatedly.
Finally, achievement motivation is a desire
within the individual that encourages
individuals to exert their best efforts in order
to achieve the desired level of achievement
or achievement. The existence of
achievement motivation within the individual
will encourage a healthy spirit of
competence, foster individuals with
responsibility and high achievement
motivation to succeed and shape individuals
into creative individuals.
From the results of the analysis in
chapter IV, it shows that there is a positive
relationship between entrepreneurial
intentions and occupational skills
significantly (p = 0.009) with a correlation
coefficient (r = 0.172) and sufficient
correlation strength so that it can be
interpreted that occupational skills have an
effective contribution to entrepreneurial
intentions of 25.9%.
Correlation of Adversity Intelligence and
Occupational Skill to Entrepreneurial
Intentions of Class XII TKR Students
individual entrepreneurship intentions
can be viewed from 4 dimensions, namely
desires, preferences, plans and behavior
expectancies. Desires are desires or desires
within individuals that encourage starting or
developing a business. Preferences are
something in an individual that indicates that
having an independent business or business
is a need that must be achieved. Plans refer
to the hopes and plans that exist within the
individual to start a business in the future.
Behavior expectancies are a review of a
possibility for entrepreneurship followed by
the target of starting a business venture
(Vemmy, 2013).
The results of the analysis in chapter IV
show that there is a positive relationship
between entrepreneurial intentions with
adversity intelligence and occupational
skills significantly (p = 0.00) with a
correlation coefficient (r = 0.618) and
sufficient correlation strength so that it can
be interpreted that adversity intelligence and
occupational skills has an effective
contribution to the entrepreneurial intention
of 60.7%.
Based on the description above,
vocational skills consisting of basic skills
and occupational skills and supported by
adversity intelligence are able to make a
positive contribution to students'
entrepreneurial interests, more specifically
that occupational skills supported by
adversity intelligence are able to increase
students' entrepreneurial interests or
intentions in the Vehicle Engineering
Expertise Competence Light.
CONCLUSION
Based on the results of the studies that
have been carried out and the discussion in
the previous chapter about the correlation
between adversity intelligence and
occupational skills on entrepreneurial
intentions in class XII students of Light
Vehicle Engineering (TKR) at SMK Negeri
11 Malang, it can be concluded as follows.
There is a correlation between adversity
intelligence and entrepreneurial intentions in
class XII students of Light Vehicle
Engineering (TKR) at SMK Negeri 11

coefficient (r = 0.577) and the strength of the
correlation enough so that it can be
interpreted that the adversity intelligence has
effective contribution to entrepreneurial
intention of 31.5%.
