I have recently revised an entrepreneurship module I teach and am in the process of trying to measure whether this has an impact (positive, or negative) on students' notions of self-efficacy. I know that this has been covered quite a lot, but would be interested to hear from anyone who has done similar research.
I know that Tomas Karlsson at Lund University has done some work on self-efficacy among students studying entrepreneurship. But I do not know whether he has published anything. If not, he may have some working papers in pipeline. I will be happy to ask him about his work about this and come back to you.
You can have a look at:

That's very kind of you Jonas. That would be much appreciated. It'd be interesting to compare results (although he scales will probably be different). From what I can see, notions of self-efficacy often decline.......
I have written a few things about entrepreneurial learning, but never worked specifically with the concept of self-efficacy. However, I am interested in updating myself on these issues. I have e-mailed Tomas Karlsson and asked about his work and I will let you know as soon as I hear from him.
I am not sure about the level of information you are looking for but know that Junior achievement Young entrepreneurs / Europe, JA-YE) at webaddress below has some survey papers http://ja-ye.eu/pls/apex31mb/f?p=17000:1002:1492336759309218:::1002:P1002_HID_ID,P1016_HID_INSTITUTION_ID:6999,1
Hi David,
I promised to come back to you about this issue:
Tomas Karlsson has a paper titled "Improving perceived entrepreneurial abilities through education: Exploratory testing of an Entrepreneurial Self Efficacy scale in a pre-post setting", which is going to be published soon in International Journal of Management Education (...in 2012 I think). If you are interested, you can look out for the paper in IJME or contact Tomas and ask for a pre-prijavascript:nt version. The paper is co-authored with Kåre Moberg at CBS (uk.cbs.dk/staff/Kåre Moberg). Kåre is doing research on the impact of entrepreneurship education on students and it may be interesting to have a closer look at his work as well.
I found another paper written by Kåre Moberg at CBS that may be of interest to you. The paper is titled "An Entrepreneurial Self-Efficacy Scale with a Neutral Wording" and it can be accessed and downloaded here: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2175530
This is a colombian study

is in spanish, but I know this could be usefull... Here the concept is Auto - confianza...
This article looks at self-efficacy in entrepreneurship students and how work integrated learning helps them in developing it:

Yes, I did a study on Contribution of Entrepreneurship Education to Developing Entrepreneurial Self Efficacy and Entrepreneurial Intentions Among University Students in Uganda. There is some good literature to review in that work regarding your question.
