Family Social Capital, Venture Preparedness, and Start-Up Decisions
基于资源基础观、社会资本和网络理论，研究了家庭社会资本、知识资本和外部社会资本如何影响创业过程，发现家庭支持对创业准备和创业决策有直接和间接作用。
Using insights from the resource-based view, social capital, and network theories, the authors develop a model of how family social capital, as well as an entrepreneur’s knowledge capital and external social capital, influences the venture creation process. The model is tested on a sample of 85 nascent Hispanic entrepreneurs. Results indicate that family social capital, measured as family support, contributes to venture preparedness and the start-up decision, suggesting that it has both a direct and an indirect influence on venture creation.
