Towards a concept of error tolerance culture: Entrepreneurship facilitator or societal risk amplifier?
本研究提出并测量了“错误容忍文化”这一概念，发现它既与跨国创业活动正相关，也与寿命缩短、事故增加和腐败等风险行为相关，为理解文化对经济和社会的影响提供了新工具。
Abstract This study introduces a concept and measure of “error tolerance culture” that could advance our understanding of cross‐national variations in entrepreneurial activity and risk‐related outcomes. Using data from 58 countries of the GLOBE study, we show that the cultural practice of error tolerance constitutes a meaningful measure with dual implications: While positively associated with entrepreneurial activity across nations, it is also linked to behaviors that can lead to reduced longevity, increased accidents, and corruption. The proposed measure of error tolerance holds significant potential as a research tool by facilitating the examination of its benefits and drawbacks, as well as uncovering its relationships with critical economic, institutional, and cultural variables.
