Evaluating the impact of prior experience in entrepreneurial intention (2015, unknown): “The quantification of prior experience using the number of years worked, or work context categorizations, limits the understanding of prior experience influence on individual intention (Baron 2009).”
Effectuation or causation: An fsQCA analysis of entrepreneurial passion, risk perception, and self-efficacy (2018, background): “Nonetheless, this assumption was never directly tested, and emerging research has questioned the sole reliance on experience-based explanations (Baron, 2009).”
Effectuation As Ineffectual? Applying the 3E Theory-Assessment Framework to a Proposed New Theory of Entrepreneurship (2015, background): “Baron (2009) critiqued the empirical analysis in effectuation (e.g., in Dew et al.’s [2009] study contrasting the use of effectual logic of expert entrepreneurs and novice MBA students), commenting that such studies lack credibility because many real alternative explanations for why expert…”
Unpacking the uncertainty construct: Implications for entrepreneurial action (2011, background): “In other words, our findings may provide further empirical support for work examining effectual logic and how expertise leads decision-makers to focus less on prediction (Dew et al., 2009).”
Student entrepreneurship and the university ecosystem: a multi-country empirical exploration (2017, background): “The important role of prior business experience, and hence expertise, in entrepreneurial decision-making research has been well documented (e.g. Baron, 2009; Sarasvathy, 2001).”
What Makes an Entrepreneurship Study Entrepreneurial? Toward A Unified Theory of Entrepreneurial Agency (2020, background): “Thus, if ability is considered something close to innate talent, such that it allows pursuit of a particular course of action, then process skill is like the cultivation of that talent through its application to goal pursuit and development via deliberate practice (Baron, 2009).”
Entrepreneurial fear of failure: Scale development and validation (2020, background): “It is suggested that entrepreneurs’ age could be responsible for differences in outcomes (e.g., Baron, 2009: Schieman et al., 2001).”
Causation and effectuation processes: A validation study (2011, background): “For example, research suggests that entrepreneurship experience leads to faster decision making (Forbes, 2005); thus habitual entrepreneurs may be more likely to follow an effectuation process (Dew et al., 2009).”
