我们将社会认同的概念融入到创业中,并分析了具有创业意图的决定因素。我们认为,企业家身份是个体社会化的结果。这可能是父母的影响,但正如本文所述,也可能是同龄人的影响。根据国际学生评估计划(PISA)2006年的数据,学生在15岁时报告了他们的创业意图,我们发现,拥有一个创业同龄人群体对个人的创业意图有积极的影响。我们发现,在一个国家,同伴效应的强度受到流行价值观,即个人主义的影响。
We incorporate the concept of social identity into entrepreneurship and analyze the determinants of having entrepreneurial intentions. We argue that an entrepreneurial identity results from an individual’s socialization. This could be parental influence but, as argued in this paper, also peer influence. Based on Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2006 data in which students report their entrepreneurial intentions at the age of 15, we find that having an entrepreneurial peer group has a positive effect on an individual’s entrepreneurial intentions. We find that the strength of the peer effect in a country is moderated by prevailing values, namely individualism.
