Selected variation: the population‐level implications of multistage selection in entrepreneurship
研究微观创业理论在总体层面的含义，指出创业者行动和克服障碍的过程构成多阶段选择，考虑选择事件能更完整理解创业过程及其结果。
Abstract This article examines the population level implications of microlevel theories of entrepreneurship. The actions of those who seek to organize opportunities, as well as the hurdles that they must overcome to successfully exploit them, give rise to an evolutionary multistage selection process. The article indicates that the consideration of selection events leads to a more complete understanding of the entrepreneurial process and how microlevel theories influence important outcomes in entrepreneurship. Other theoretical and empirical implications of staged selection for research in entrepreneurship are discussed. Copyright © 2008 Strategic Management Society.
