Toward a sustainable conceptualization of dependent variables in entrepreneurship research
指出创业研究过度聚焦财务绩效，提出包含经济、环境和社会价值的因变量类型学，以拓宽研究范围。
Abstract Entrepreneurship researchers have yet to explore the full range variance that occurs in entrepreneurial value creation because we have focused almost exclusively on financial performance as the dependent variable in our research. However, such arbitrary narrowness is not supported by research, which shows entrepreneurs to not focus exclusively on income maximization. Consistent with calls for an expanded view of the consequences of entrepreneurship, we develop a typology of entrepreneurship dependent variables that supports broadening the scope of entrepreneurship research to include economic, environmental and social value.
