• Action! Moving beyond the intendedly-rational logics of entrepreneurship (2018, background): “If accurate, such logics may explain the findings that impulsive sensationseeking mediates the role of genetics in differentiating entrepreneurs from non-entrepreneurs (Nicolaou et al., 2008).”
• Smart and Illicit: Who Becomes an Entrepreneur and Do They Earn More? (2017, background): “Researchers examine the connection between the propensity for an individual to become self-employed and self-esteem, optimism, and a taste for novelty, as in Horvath and Zuckerman (1993), Zuckerman (1994), Nicolaou et al. (2008), and Hartog, Praag, and Sluis (2010).”
