Happy Entrepreneurs? Everywhere? A Meta-Analysis of Entrepreneurship and Wellbeing
这篇元分析整合了94项研究、319个效应量，来自82个国家，考察创业者是否比受雇者更幸福。答案部分肯定，但取决于福祉的具体维度（积极福祉还是消极福祉/心理疾病）和制度环境（尤其是法治水平）。
Entrepreneurship can be fulfilling and enhance wellbeing, but also highly stressful and diminish wellbeing. This meta-analytical review synthesizes 319 effect sizes from 94 studies and 82 countries to establish whether individuals derive greater wellbeing from working for themselves or for someone else. The answer is partly positive in favor of entrepreneurship but depends on the components of wellbeing under investigation (positive wellbeing or negative wellbeing/mental illbeing) and the institutional context (especially the rule of law). We contribute by developing the component view of wellbeing as an organizing framework and by advancing an institutional perspective to guide research on entrepreneurs’ wellbeing.
