Based on qualitative interviews with social entrepreneurs in Saudi Arabia, we find that human capital—represented by education and professional experience—influences the perception of regulative institutions, but can create a mismatch between expectations and reality. The four psychological capital components affect social entrepreneurs’ perceptions of regulative institutions at different stages of the venture. Self-efficacy and optimism are useful at the beginning of the social entrepreneur’s journey, whereas hope and resilience are more important for the viability of social enterprise at later stages.","PeriodicalId":47833,"journal":{"name":"INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION","volume":"21 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136347009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
