Understanding and Measuring Autonomy: An Entrepreneurial Orientation Perspective
论证自主性是创业导向的关键维度，回顾现有衡量方法后提出新量表，并通过两项研究验证其有效性，为未来创业导向研究提供工具。
Autonomy is an important component of an entrepreneurial orientation (EO), but most studies that assess the EO construct do not include autonomy measures. This article first addresses the theoretical relevance of autonomy as an element of firm–level entrepreneurial behavior. After a review of existing autonomy measures, it then proposes scale items to test the autonomy dimension of EO. Finally, it reports the results of two studies of the proposed autonomy scale and addresses implications for future EO–related autonomy research.
