PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the effect of family business exposure on individuals' entrepreneurial intentions (EIs). By applying the institutional framework at the micro level, this study proposed the mediation of three types of institutional forces (coercive, normative and mimetic) between the relationship of family business exposure and EIs.Design/methodology/approachData were collected from 367 university students in Pakistan. The survey design was used for the data collection. The measurement and hypothesized models were tested using the structural equation modeling technique in Mplus 7.0.FindingsThe findings of this study revealed that family business exposure positively influenced the institutional forces (coercive, normative and mimetic) which further developed the individuals' EIs. However, family business exposure did not affect the EIs directly that showed the full mediation of institutional forces between the relationship of family business exposure and EIs.Originality/valueThis is the first study in its nature which applied institutional theory from the macro level to the micro level within the context of family business. The results revealed the institutional forces as the underpinning mechanism which explains the relationship between family business exposure and EIs.

“…The agricultural sector has unique characteristics that distinguish it from other industries. Specifically, market risks often occur due to the high degree of uncertainty in the agricultural supply chain (Zeng et al, 2017), long industrial chains leading to difficulty in maintaining a stable level of quality in agricultural products (Lin et al, 2019), agriculture production's reliance on the environment (Leong et al, 2016) and the fragility and perishability of agricultural products which may increase due to high circulation costs (Cui et al, 2017). All these characteristics can cause uncertainty and operational difficulties in the agricultural sector.…”
