Entrepreneurship and Subjective Well-Being: The Mediating Role of Psychological Functioning (2019, background): “In addition, prior research indicates that strong social bonds “provide a conduit through which outside actors are drawn into the venture creation process” (Wood & McKinley, 2010, p. 73 citing Berglund, 2007).”
International entrepreneurship: The pursuit of entrepreneurial opportunities across national borders (2018, background): “The knowledge gaps due to uncertainty and resource constraints can impede progress, and so process trajectories are retractable (Dimov, 2011), with some ideas abandoned (Wood & McKinley, 2010) and some reframed over time (Lichtenstein, Dooley, & Lumpkin, 2006).”
Opportunities and institutions: A co-creation story of the king crab industry (2015, background): “…outcome of a socially constructed iterative enactment process under conditions of uncertainty, between entrepreneurs and their stakeholders that result in new products and services (Alvarez and Barney, 2007; Alvarez et al., 2013; Garud and Karnoe, 2003; Sarasvathy, 2001; Wood and McKinley, 2010).”
Opportunity Evaluation as Rule‐Based Decision Making (2014, background): “In some cases, the effects are counterintuitive, which adds richness to recent conversation on the interpretivist view of opportunities (e.g. Barreto, 2012; Wood and McKinley, 2010) and helps to explain why an entrepreneur might pursue one opportunity while passing on others.”
Toward An Integration of the Behavioral and Cognitive Influences on the Entrepreneurship Process (2016, background): “…imagination, entrepreneurs effectively open virtual lab spaces, where they can develop and test new ideas, conceive new markets, products and services, and consider alternative courses of action without the risk of error or expense of tangible resource investments (e.g., Wood and McKinley, 2010).”
Bridging Behavioral Models and Theoretical Concepts: Effectuation and Bricolage in the Opportunity Creation Framework (2016, unknown): “Although both the deductive and inductive approaches focus on similar questions, each literature has largely followed its own developmental arc, with little integration (Wood and McKinley, 2010; Arend, Sarooghi, and Burkemper, 2015).”
The formation and interplay of social capital in crowdfunded social ventures (2014, background): “This certainly reflects well on previous literature on opportunities and social entrepreneurship, where the original theoretical separation into distinct streams of either recognition or formation was already breached (Korsgaard 2011; Lehner and Kaniskas 2012; Wood and McKinley 2010).”
Digital Technologies as External Enablers of New Venture Creation in the IT Hardware Sector (2018, methodology): “…2015, p. 689) Third, our approach also introduces a way to integrate consideration of technologies and other objective, actor-independent factors into process-oriented theorizing, where systematic attention to such factors has been lacking (Alvarez, Barney, & Anderson, 2013; Wood & McKinley, 2010).”
Entrepreneurial alertness: Exploring its psychological antecedents and effects on firm outcomes (2021, background): “It is worth noting that although the discovery of potential opportunities has gained great traction in entrepreneurship research, more recently scholars have proposed an alternative view of opportunity: opportunity creation (Alvarez & Barney, 2007; Ramoglou & Tsang, 2018; Wood & McKinely, 2010).”
A process model of academic entrepreneurship (2011, background): “Thus, the earlystage technologies available through TTOs are likely an excellent source of entrepreneurial inspiration and entrepreneurial ideas (Wood & McKinley, 2010).”
