“…This impairs the ability of members to understand each other and weakens their understanding of the environment and decisions of the company. This, in turn, makes decision quality and company efficiency low to the point that the strategic sustainability of the entrepreneurial team is affected negatively [32]. Thus, we propose that H8: the entrepreneurial team cognitive characteristic of emotional conflict has a markedly negative influence on strategic stability.…”

Entrepreneurial and innovative activities are becoming a global economic and social phenomenon, especially in emerging economies. This study focuses on a typical emerging economy, China, and its entrepreneurial and innovative activities. On the basis of current research, the literature review and the chain of “cognition–behavior–outcome” are used for constructing the theoretical model for the relationship among entrepreneurial team cognition characteristics, behavior characteristics, and venture performance. A total of 101 valid copies of questionnaire are collected from entrepreneurial team members, as the research objects, and the structural equation modeling (SEM) method is applied to test the theoretical hypotheses. The research results reveal (1) significant effects of entrepreneurial team cognition characteristics and behavior characteristics on venture performance and (2) partial mediating effects of entrepreneurial team behavior characteristics on the relationship between cognition characteristics and venture performance. The research results are the expansion of research on entrepreneurial teams as well as the important reference for entrepreneurial team management and behavioral practice.

“…Long and Dong ( 2017 ) discovered, using dynamic data from the Chinese Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamics, which randomly sampled and followed nascent entrepreneurs for 3 years, that those with successful entrepreneurial experience can create new ventures more quickly, whereas industry experience has a negative effect on new venture emergence. Poblete et al ( 2019 ) discovered an inverted U-shaped relationship between the length of entrepreneurial experience and their optimism indicator in a cross-national sample of 450,000 people from 35 countries from 2009 to 2011. This finding suggests that novice entrepreneurs are more likely than mature and experienced individuals to have an immature perception of the obstacles and threats to the development of a new venture during a severe crisis, such as the 2008 GFC.…”

Entrepreneurship is a highly complex process influenced by numerous factors. The goal of this paper is to identify the combinations of fundamental entrepreneurial determinants that drive opportunity recognition (OR) in different economic environments. We focus on two points in Tunisia’s recent economic cycle: before and after the 2011 Revolution. Using micro-level survey data, the study employs ordered logit analysis to identify basic entrepreneur characteristics that may increase the likelihood of identifying entrepreneurial opportunities during these two economic cycle phases. Several key factors, such as training, creativity, and social networks, are found to be ineffective in the OR process. Furthermore, education attainment lost its major and well-established function throughout Tunisia’s profound and protracted socioeconomic crisis. Only self-efficacy and prior experience have particularly strong effects on identifying entrepreneurial opportunities during the period of economic downturn. Despite the government's efforts to incorporate entrepreneurship education into university curricula and business practices, these findings show that Tunisia is still in the early phases of entrepreneurship integration and development, with patchy and uncoordinated activity. The drivers of entrepreneurial perception in the quest for opportunities described by western theories should not be applied uniformly in less developed economies, which have unique political and economic contexts and challenges. We also noticed that the revolution’s resulting crisis did not deter young entrepreneurs from launching business ventures. This finding may pique the Tunisian government’s interest in devising an effective strategy to support young entrepreneurship, especially in light of the new COVID-19 outbreak’s potential impact on Tunisia’s already vulnerable economy.

“…The obstacles and incentives in the business you will establish upon making a business decision are affected by many variables. Family, culture, education, religion and economy and geography are the leading variables that affect entrepreneurship (Basar, 2017;Guney, 2015;Karadal, 2016;Molina, 2020;Poblete, Sena & De Arroyabe, 2019;Tutar, Altınkaynak & Terzi, 2017;Valliere, 2019). These variables affect the spirit of motivation and entrepreneurship that affect individuals' initiatives (Basar, 2017;Soomro, Shah & Mangi, 2019) may positively or negatively impact (Murnieks, Klotz & Shepherd, 2020).…”

The aim of this study is to examine the prospective science teachers’ understanding towards entrepreneurial skills. This study, which 146 prospective science teachers of 3rd grade at two state universities in Turkey have participated in, is carried out through the survey method. The data of the research are gathered with “Entrepreneurship Test (ET)”. The acquired data are analyzed by using the content analysis method. It is observed that the relation between entrepreneurship and economy is particularly explained with several characteristics by about one third of prospective teachers, whereas the vast majority of them are unable to establish this relation or give meaningless replies as a result of the research. However, it is found out that the great majority of the prospective teachers are able to explain upon the opportunities of entrepreneurship on the basis of the cultural structure of society. It is seen that very few prospective teachers emphasize on creativity and innovation important in regarding to using entrepreneurial skill. Nevertheless, it is observed that integration of the prospective teachers’ sense of entrepreneurship with technology is inadequate. In addition, it is understood that the vast number of the prospective teachers are incompetent about how they will be able to use the nature and environment when they put their opinions into practice (in the process of business establishment). Moreover, it is revealed that very few candidates are aware of performing the operations such as determining the business idea, making a preliminary assessment of the business idea and questioning the feasibility of the business idea. Furthermore, it is determined that almost all candidates do not have information about the process and content of preparing a business plan. These results show that the prospective science teachers’ understanding towards entrepreneurial skill is quite weak. Keywords: Science, the prospective teacher, the entrepreneurship skill.
