Abstract

Identifying the factors that influence the formation of the entrepreneurial intention is important in cultivating entrepreneurs and inducing entrepreneurial innovation in the country. Previous studies have mainly examined the direct effects of social cognition attributes as predictors on entrepreneurial intentions or entrepreneurial activities. However, the fundamental factors that these social cognition attributes are derived from have not been sufficiently addressed in the field of entrepreneurship. Based on social cognitive theory and schema theory, this study assumes that an individual's entrepreneurial experience is an important antecedent factor in forming social cognitive attributes, and reveals the mechanism for how experience forms entrepreneurial intention. To this end, this study analyzes the influence of entrepreneurs' prior experience of entrepreneurial activities on entrepreneurial self-efficacy, opportunity recognition, and fear of failure which are considered to be the main variables that shape entrepreneurial intention. And it analyzes how these factors have a significant effect on entrepreneurship intention. Along with this, the mediating role of these social cognitive attributes is analyzed in order to understand the path that leads from entrepreneurial experience to entrepreneurial intention. This study also suggests how gender moderates the effect of entrepreneurship experience on social cognitive attributes. As a result of the analysis, it was found that entrepreneurial experience increase entrepreneurial self-efficacy and opportunity recognition of entrepreneurs, and decrease the fear of failure. These social perception attribute significantly mediate the relationship between entrepreneurial experience and entrepreneurial intention. This study also found that there are significant moderating effects of gender on the relationship of entrepreneurial experience and both of entrepreneurial self-efficacy and fear of failure. This study also analyzed the impact of the entrepreneurial experience of failure, which corresponds to the detailed experience. Similar to the results of entrepreneurial experience analysis, entrepreneurial experience of failure plays a role in enhancing entrepreneurial self-efficacy. However, its effect on opportunity recognition and fear of failure were not significant. An empirical analysis of data related to 25,047 entrepreneurs from 87 countries, using the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM), shows the differences in the formation of individuals' entrepreneurial intentions according to entrepreneurial experience and the mediating role of social cognitive attributes. The study has embodied the social cognitive theory on entrepreneurial intention by shedding light on the variables that are important but alienated for increasing entrepreneurial intention. Moreover, the study enhances the understanding of cognitive processes leading from individual experiences to entrepreneurial intentions. This study also emphasizes the importance of differentiated approach by gender for boosting entrepreneurial intention through analysis of moderating effect of gender.

창업의도(Entrepreneurial intention)를 형성하는 데 영향을 주는 요인이 무엇인지 밝혀내는 것은 창업가를 양성하고 국가 내 기업가적 혁신이 활발히 일어나도록 유도하는 데 있어서 참고할 수 있는 중요한 일이다. 그동안의 연구들이 사회인지 속성을 예측인자로 활용해 창업의도 혹은 기업가적 활동에 직접적으로 미치는 영향을 주로 제시해왔지만, 이러한 사회인지 속성들이 무엇에서 비롯되는지 근본적 요인에 대해서는 기업가정신 분야에서 충분히 다뤄지지 않았다. 본 연구는 사회인지이론과 스키마이론을 기반으로 개인의 창업경험(Entrepreneurial experience)이 사회인지 속성을 형성하는 중요한 선행요인임을 가정하며, 경험이 창업의도를 어떻게 형성하는지에 대한 메커니즘을 밝힌다. 이를 위하여 기업가의 창업경험이 사회인지이론에서 창업의도를 형성하는 주요 변수로 꼽히는 기업가적 자기효능감(Entrepreneurial Self-efficacy), 기회인식(Opportunity recognition), 실패두려움(Fear of failure) 등에 미치는 영향을 분석하며, 이러한 요인이 어떻게 창업의도에 유의한 영향을 미치는지 분석한다. 이와 함께 창업 경험과 창업의도 사이에 이어지는 경로를 파악하기 위하여 이러한 사회인지속성이 어떤 매개 역할을 하는지를 분석한다. 또한 성별에 따라 생물학적 차이 뿐만 아니라 사회적 상호 작용의 결과로 나타나는 사회적 차이, 그리고 인지적 차이가 만들어지는 점을 고려, 성별에 따라 개인의 창업경험이 사회인지 속성 및 창업의도에 미치는 영향이 어떻게 조절되는지를 분석한다. Global Entrepreneurship Monitor(GEM)의 87개국의 25,047명 기업가 데이터에 기반한 계량 분석을 한 결과, 창업경험은 기업가적 자기효능감과 기회인식을 높이고, 실패두려움은 줄이는 것으로 나타났으며 이러한 사회인지속성은 창업경험과 창업의도의 관계를 유의하게 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 성별에 따른 조절효과도 유의해, 남성과 여성은 창업경험으로부터 창업의도가 형성되는 양상이 다르게 나타났다. 기업가 정신 분야의 선행연구에서 과거 경험의 역할은 중요하지만 충준히 다뤄지지 않았다. 이 연구는 구조방정식을 이용하여 창업경험의 매개효과 및 성별의 조절효과를 통해 창업의도 형성의 메커니즘을 구체적으로 밝혀냈다는 점에서 의의를 지닌다.
