“…Specifically, the results of the analysis suggest that in highly economically developed, low-SPaE countries (~SPaE) (e.g., Germany, Mexico, and South Korea), greater focus on improving ES may be more beneficial to raising SPaE than a broader policy focus on EFC, which may in fact be counterproductive. These findings are supported by, for example, Kalden, Cunningham, and Anderson (2017) in the context of Germany. In other developed economies (e.g., Australia, China, Taiwan, Thailand, and the UK), more direct focus on SPaE conditions themselves may be more appropriate.…”

This study investigated the relationship between entrepreneurial climate (EC) and selfperceptions about entrepreneurship (SPaE). The variables and data were derived from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) dataset and framework. Specifically, the study examined variables closely related to the GEM concepts of entrepreneurial capacity and preferences across 54 countries. Fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) was conducted to investigate associations between EC and SPaE. Three condition variables described EC: economic stage of development, entrepreneurial framework conditions, and entrepreneurial status. Four items described SPaE: perceived start-up opportunities, perceived capabilities, fear of failure, and entrepreneurial intention. Two forms of single outcome measures were constructed from the four items that described SPaE. A standard factor analysisbased score yielded the outcome SPaE F . Fuzzy cluster analysis produced a two-cluster-based outcome SPaE C . Having two outcomes referring to the same concept (SPaE) leads to discussion on what should be done to facilitate "same concept" based analyses using fsQCA. The findings open up discussion on the efficacy of fsQCA as regards its sensitivity to slight changes in the outcome. Practical applied issues surrounding entrepreneurship (EC and SPaE) are also discussed. Terjesen, S. (2012).

“…This was expected since the existing literature had associated entrepreneurship with flexibility. However, JOE seemed to produce single-track career attitudes through which entrepreneurs are not seen as serious people (Kalden et al , 2017). H4 extended the importance of EOE over JOE because only EOE mediated the relationship between EPL self-efficacy and intentions.…”

Purpose This study aims to investigate how new graduates in Nigeria can simultaneously pursue entrepreneurial and professional careers. Specifically, this study tested the contextual (socioeconomic status [SES]), person-based (an open personality) and cognitive-person (self-efficacy and outcome expectations) predictors of entrepreneurship, professionalism and leadership. Design/methodology/approach The study design is cross-sectional. Data were collected from 363 new graduates from Nigerian tertiary institutions. Hypotheses were generated from social cognitive career self-management (CSM) variables. Research instruments were also revalidated for the Nigerian context, and regression path analysis was used to analyze the data. Findings This study’s key findings showed that SES and an open personality are predictors of entrepreneurship, professionalism and leadership (EPL) self-efficacy and intentions, entrepreneurial and job outcome expectations. Second, EPL self-efficacy predicted both entrepreneurial and job outcome expectations and served as a mediating variable for SES and an open personality. Third, entrepreneurial outcome expectations related to EPL intentions, whereas job outcome expectations did not. These results suggest that SES and openness personality trait are crucial for developing a versatile career mindset. Research limitations/implications This study demonstrated that individuals’ characteristics (i.e. cognitive and personality) and economic resources are crucial determinants of CSM. As this study is cross-sectional, future research could use a longitudinal approach to determine the cause-effect relationship. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first research to examine how new graduates can simultaneously explore entrepreneurial and professional careers in a developing country like Nigeria using the CSM theory.

“…Socially, the existence of women active in economic activities, such as entrepreneurship, trading, and other economic activities, can create social welfare. Meanwhile, this condition, also in the economic dimension, can create economic independence and build women's economic status (Hitt et al, 2011), create access to jobs, and socio-economic discourse (Kalden et al, 2017).…”

Purpose – This study aims to examine the important role of religion and the contribution of the community to empower women in building women's capabilities as actors in the family economy.Methodology – This study uses a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach and collects data using observation, interviews, and documentation studies.Findings – This study shows that the contextualization of religious teachings, which are widely discussed in religious forums (Payungi Entrepreneurial Pesantren), and the contribution of the community in the actualization of ideas in women's empowerment can change the negative stigma of women and encourage women to become economic actors in the family through women's entrepreneurial activities.Implications – Religion and community can be optimized to encourage women to build capabilities and respond to various forms of inequality. Their existence in empowering women contributes to shaping the character of women entrepreneurs by prioritizing religious and collectivity values.Originality – This study completes the puzzle of previous research deficiencies by revealing phenomena in women's empowerment built from religious spirits and transformative movements produced by the community.
