摘要

本研究调查了翁多州阿科科地区中小型企业(SMEs)企业家商业冒险倾向的社会和经济决定因素。本研究采用描述性研究设计。研究人群包括构成研究地点的四个地方政府的中小企业企业家。通过随机抽取241名调查对象进行问卷调查和8次深度访谈,收集初步资料。定量资料采用独立测度t检验的描述性统计分析,定性资料采用内容分析。年轻企业家比年长企业家表现出更高的冒险倾向[t (241) =4.47;p < . 05);男性企业家的冒险倾向程度高于女性企业家[t (241) =1.577;p < . 05);经验丰富的企业家比经验不足的企业家表现出更低的冒险倾向[t (241) =3.02;p < . 05)。然而,教育程度没有显著影响[t (241) =1.099;p < . 05);宗教倾向[t (241) =1.062;p <。[05]企业家的冒险倾向。金融资本[β = 0.091, t=1.385],电力稳定性[β = 0.020, t=。329],营业地点[β =。191, t =2.418],客户群[β = 0.041;t =。642],市场竞争[β = -]。[146],是冒险倾向的低预测因子。中小企业企业家被要求掌握自己的创业领域,这方面的知识将增强他们的冒险倾向。

It utilised descriptive research design. Study population comprised SMEs entrepreneurs in the four local governments making up the study location. Collection of primary data was done using Questionnaire administered on randomly selected 241 respondents and 8 in-depth interviews. Quantitative data were analysed with descriptive statistics involving T-test of independent measures while qualitative data were content analysed. Younger entrepreneurs expressed higher levels of risk-taking propensity than their older counterparts [t (241) =4.47; p<.05]; Male entrepreneurs expressed higher degree of risk-taking propensity than their female counterparts [t (241) =1.577; p<.05]; highly experienced entrepreneurs expressed lower level of risk-taking propensity than their less experienced counterparts [t (241) =3.02; p<.05]. However, there was no significant influence of education [t (241) =1.099; p<.05]; and religious leaning [t (241) =1.062; p<.05] on risk-taking propensity among entrepreneurs. Also, financial capital [β = .091, t=1.385], stability of electricity [β = .020, t=.329], business location [β =.191, t =2.418], customer base [β = .041; t=.642], and market competition [β = -.146], were low predictors of risk-taking propensity.
