Examining the entrepreneurial attitudes of US business students (2008, background): “In addition, research by Robinson (1987) suggests that entrepreneurs have a high level of self-esteem and confidence, while Douglas and Shepherd (2002) found that a more positive attitude toward risk and independence leads to stronger entrepreneurial intentions.”
