The findings indicate that narcissism positively influences entrepreneurial intentions. Additionally, psychopathy and Machiavellianism negatively impact motivational dynamics, while narcissism has a positive effect. Furthermore, the positive effects of motivational dynamics on entrepreneurial intentions have been confirmed. Mediation analysis reveals that individual motivations partially mediate the relationship between the dark triad and entrepreneurial intentions. Finally, the research results show that the country plays a moderating role in the relationships between narcissism and entrepreneurial intentions, personal attitudes and entrepreneurial intentions, psychopathy, and perceived behavioral control, and the need for achievement and narcissism with personal attitudes.

Are new and mature entrepreneurs ready for more internal and external challenges? In this context, can we pose the existential question: to be or not to be? The main aim of this paper is to study entrepreneurial resilience from a gender perspective among graduates from a business incubator programme. This research employs perception-based longitudinal data obtained from graduate entrepreneurs from a business incubator programme in Madrid. We found that male graduate entrepreneurs have higher levels of resilience based on individual variables, such as self-efficacy and decision-making, but female graduate entrepreneurs are less affected by situational or exogenous variables, such as economic crises, labour legislation, competitive environment, and technological changes. These findings suggest that managers and instructors of business incubators should improve training programmes by considering gender specificities. These programmes could use the latest smart technologies to simulate, adapt and personalise training according to needs from a gender perspective. Thus, gender-focused training programmes could boost other inclusive policies for integrating and creating more diverse entrepreneurial intention and resilience programmes.</p>","PeriodicalId":48058,"journal":{"name":"International Entrepreneurship and Management Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141720800","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data from the second Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamics (PSED II), a representative sample of nascent entrepreneurial activity in the United States, this study documents that nascent entrepreneurs generally choose between founding an independent new venture and following a type of corporate-affiliated entrepreneurial strategy (CAES), such as a franchise, spin-off, or similar approach. The success of this decision is contingent upon entrepreneurs’ stock of human capital. Relevant industry experiences tend to reduce the likelihood of an entrepreneur employing a CAES, while managerial experience and previous start-up experience increases the probability. Overall, those nascent entrepreneurs who follow a CAES are more likely to achieve a first positive cash-flow; this highlights the benefits of corporate affiliations in the field of new venture founding.</p>","PeriodicalId":48058,"journal":{"name":"International Entrepreneurship and Management Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141720798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They play an essential role in national economies due to their contributions to employment, human capital development, knowledge spillovers, and social mobility in maintaining diverse entrepreneurial ecosystems. Government support policies (GSP), both financial and nonfinancial, can directly impact SME performance or indirectly by developing an entrepreneurial orientation (EO). Few studies have investigated the important question of how GSP simultaneously may impact both the EO and the performance of an SME. Thus, this paper aims to identify the current understanding of how different forms of GSPs relate to and impact the EO and the performance of SMEs. A systematic literature review was conducted using the PRISMA methodology to synthesize this understanding, resulting in 65 relevant articles from the ABI/INFORM, ScienceDirect, Scopus and Web of Science databases. The relationships between the constructs were analyzed using thematic and semantic analyses, employing computer-assisted data analysis software (NVivo 12 and Leximancer 4.5). This resulted in the categorization of GSPs as direct and indirect support policies, with financial and nonfinancial-subcategories, and depicted their pathways of influence on SMEs’ EO and performance. The study found that GSPs have four different pathways by which they can impact performance. Both direct and indirect policies have moderating effects that can magnify the impact of EO on performance. The review established that the direct effect of GSP on EO varies by sector, SME growth-intention, and type of GSP. Based on the findings, we recommend policymakers develop support policies tailored to SMEs’ specific sector and its intentions to enhance performance.</p>","PeriodicalId":48058,"journal":{"name":"International Entrepreneurship and Management Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141511750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
