Abstract

We studied individual psychological characteristics such as conformity and ecocentrism in Mexican artisans, and the effect these characteristics have on entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and environmental behavior (EB) in artisan family businesses in Oaxaca and Guanajuato, Mexico. The research model is empirically validated by partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). We found that conformity is a value that positively affects EO and EB. In contrast, ecocentrism has a positive effect on EB, but not on EO. Our study highlights the importance of focusing on conformity as a characteristic of survival ventures. On the other hand, it is imperative to carry out research that incorporates the environmental dimension to characterize the sustainability aspect in survival ventures.

创业取向与环境行为&从墨西哥工匠的生态中心主义与从众价值观解读

我们研究了墨西哥工匠的个体心理特征，如从众性和生态中心主义，以及这些特征对瓦哈卡州和瓜纳华托州工匠家庭企业的创业取向（EO）和环境行为（EB）的影响。通过偏最小二乘结构方程建模（PLS-SEM）对研究模型进行了实证验证。我们发现，一致性是一种对EO和EB产生积极影响的价值观。相反，生态中心主义对EB有积极影响，但对EO没有。我们的研究强调了关注一致性作为生存风险特征的重要性。另一方面，必须开展包含环境层面的研究，以表征生存企业的可持续性方面。
