Abstract:The present study undertakes a comprehensive and critical review of the body of empirical work on entrepreneurial passion. In particular, we document how the “first generation” of research on entrepreneurial passion and work passion in entrepreneurs has gained growing attention in various sub‐fields of entrepreneurship research including entrepreneurial management, psychology, and finance. We provide an overview over theories used, definitions and measurements adopted, research methods utilized (e.g., qualitat… Show more
“…Since this special issue gives a comprehensive overview of the state of the research on passion for work, features of the various definitions and models shall only briefly be addressed here. When summarizing research gaps in the previous literature and proposing approaches to integrate core elements of various models, this article will rely mainly on the research on the dual model of passion (e.g., Vallerand et al, 2003;Vallerand & Houlfort, 2019), aspects of entrepreneurial passion (e.g., Cardon, Wincent et al, 2009; for an overview, see Newman et al, 2019), research distinguishing between malleable and stable aspects of passion for work (Chen et al, 2018;O'Keefe et al, 2018;Duckworth et al, 2007;Jachimowicz, Wihler, Bailey, & Galinsky, 2018) and models distinguishing between specific facets of passion for work (Moeller, 2014;Moeller, Ivcevic, et al, under review).…”

“…Many definitions of passion for work overlap so much with other constructs (e.g., work engagement, commitment, personal interest) that it is often unclear where one construct begins and the other ends (for overviews, see Moeller, 2014 andNewman et al, 2019).…”

“…A facet represents one specific psychological mechanism. Most models and measures of work passion include a number of passion facets and measure passion as a composite (mean or latent variable) of various facets (for an overview, see e.g., Newman et al 2019).…”

“…In addition to the different definitions and models, there are various measures of passion for work, including the dual model passion scale (Vallerand et al, 2003;Ho, Kong, Lee, Dubreuil, & Forest, 2018), measures of entrepreneurial passion (for an overview, see Newman et al, 2019), measures of lay people's beliefs about passion (Chen et al, 2018;O'Keefe et al, 2018;Jachimowicz, To, Menges, Akinola, 2018), and facet measures of work passion (e.g., Moeller, Ivcevic, et al, under review). To reduce confusion due to jingle and jangle fallacies and to build upon each other's work in a cumulative way, it seems desirable to strive towards some agreement about how to measure passion for work.…”

“…First, describing passion as a multi-facetted construct is very common among passion researchers, see for instance in the taxonomy of facets in the entrepreneurial passion literature (Newman et al, 2019). Thus, identifying the specific facets which two definitions, models, or measures agree, and those they do not agree about seems an important first step towards identifying the core of passion and integrating the various passion definitions and measures.…”
Section: Specifying the Exact Facets Of Passion For Workmentioning
In almost two decades, the research on passion for work has produced a variety of definitions, measures, and models specifying components, predictors, and outcomes the construct. A challenge for the next generation of research studies will be the integration of these diverse theoretical and methodological approaches with each other and with other fields related to the study of motivation and emotion. This article proposes approaches that shall help to integrate and advance the research on passion for work by implementing recent innovations and insights from the research on related motivational and emotional constructs. The following solutions are proposed: (1) specifying the exact facets of passion for work in theoretical models and measures, (2) using psychometric network models to examine the relationships among the facets and the facets’ relationships with relevant predictors and outcomes, (3) formulating and testing process models that distinguish between state- and trait development and include recursive feedback loops, (4) examining the ambivalent motivation and mixed emotions accompanying passion for work with intra-individual methods, (5) working towards cumulative scientific insights by adopting multi-lab collaborations and other open science practices, and (6) distinguishing between the facets that drive affective thriving and those driving perseverance in the face of obstacles.

This research aims to investigate the impact of social networking, family support, social dominance orientation and, access to finance on the entrepreneurial intention among Omani women and to examine the mediating role of entrepreneurial persistence and entrepreneurial passion between growth constraints and the entrepreneurial intention on Omani women. The contribution of women in the development of the economy has received great attention in the past years. Therefore, to motivate women to engage in entrepreneurship, it is necessary to understand the growth impediments that impact their entrepreneurial intentions to achieve sustainable development goal (SDG-5). By using the stratified sampling method, this study collected data from 262 Omani women from nine regions,
Despite growing interest among researchers and practitioners in the topic of work passion, multiple conceptualizations of this construct exist, and research within each conceptualization has advanced along independent streams with little integration or cross‐fertilization. In this editorial, we provide a brief overview of the literature on work passion (including employee passion and entrepreneurial passion), describe five extant conceptualizations, and present criticisms and opportunities for future research. We discuss the six papers in this special issue on work passion research and strongly encourage additional research that tames breadth and promotes depth in the study of passion at work.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
