Entrepreneurial motivation and self-employment: evidence from expectancy theory (2017, background): “The results obtained are consistent with the empirical evidence offered by Gatewood et al. (2002), Bayon et al. (2015) and Uy et al. (2015) regarding the critical importance of motivation as a driving force for business creation and also commitment and aptitude.”

Gender stereotyping effects on entrepreneurial self‐efficacy and high‐growth entrepreneurial intention (2013, background): “66) proposal that entrepreneurial self-efficacy (ESE) is “an important explanatory variable in determining both the strength of entrepreneurial intentions and the likelihood that those intentions will result in entrepreneurial actions”, researchers have begun to examine the relationship between entr”
