Purpose - This study aimed to investigate the effect of entrepreneurial temperament (ET) such as innovativeness, risk-taking, and proactiveness in entrepreneur's lifetime before start-up and the effect of social capital (SC) such as network ties and trustworthiness on entrepreneurial intention. Research design, data, and methodology - We examined the components of ET (innovativeness, risk-taking, and proactiveness) and components of SC (network ties and trustworthiness) through existing prior research and investigated the factors that affected entrepreneurial intention. The first hypothesis of this study was that entrepreneurial temperament will have a significant impact on network ties of social capital, and the second hypothesis assumed that entrepreneurial temperament will have a significant effect on the trustworthiness of social capital. Finally, the second hypothesis assumed that social capital will have a significant impact on entrepreneurial intentions. We collected 175 data using questionnaires for people who have not yet started a start-up. And we used the Structure Equation Modeling (SEM) to evaluate the collected data and to test the research model by the two step research procedure. Results - As a result, the innovativeness and proactiveness of ET have a significant effect on network ties and trustworthiness of SC, but the effect of risk-taking on risk-taking of SC is not significant. On the other hand, network ties and network ties of SC was revealed a significant effect on the EI. Conclusions - The implications of this article could be observed as mentioned in this paper. First, we found that entrepreneurial innovativeness and proactiveness are helpful in constructing SCs, but not risk-taking. These results demonstrated that ET of entrepreneurs is important factor in the formation of social capital. Second, the SC that an entrepreneur built before the start-up has a meaning for EI. In conclusion, ET was affected partially to EI mediated SC. It is academic in that ET and SC are independent from each other and have a mediating role between ET and EI, unlike those directly affecting EI. Although some important implications were found in this study, this study had some limitations and we hope that future research will be complemented.

본 연구의 저자들은 최근 문화예술 분야에서 자금 조달 수단으로 인기를 얻고 있는 크라우드펀딩의 성공 요인을 실증 분석을 통해 살펴보았다. 국내 대표적인 보상형 크라우드펀딩 플랫폼 중 하나인 텀블벅(Tumblbug)의 목록(2018년 6월 기준)에 있는 장편영화, 다큐멘터리,단편영화, 애니메이션, 웹시리즈 카테고리에 해당하는 총 494개의 프로젝트를 대상 표본으로 하여, 해당 프로젝트의 크라우드펀딩을 통한 최종 모금액에 미치는 여러 요인의 관계를 위계적 선형 회귀 모형을 통해 분석하였다. 본 연구는 특히 해당 프로젝트 제안자의 과거 경험을 통해 축적한 사회적 자본과 해당 프로젝트 소개 페이지에 보이는 소셜 커뮤니케이션 활동에 주목하고, 이러한 요인들이 크라우드펀딩 성공 여부에 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보았다. 분석결과, 프로젝트 제안자가 다른 프로젝트 제안자의 프로젝트를 지원하는 이타적인 행위를 통해 축적한 사회적 자본과 아울러 모금 기간에 크라우드펀딩 웹사이트 내에서 이루어지는 소셜 커뮤니케이션 활동이 최종 모금액에 긍정적인 효과를 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 소셜 커뮤니케이션 활동이 모금액에 미치는 긍정적인 효과는 투자자에게 제공되는 보상 그리고 프로젝트 제안자의 사회적 자본이 적을 경우 그 영향이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다.

Entrepreneurial intention is receiving immense recognition in entrepreneurship researches, as it motives an individual to become an entrepreneur. Still, the interplay between gender perspective and contextual factors (i.e., access to capital, business information, social network, educational support, structural support) are not fully investigated in understanding the entrepreneurial intention in developing countries like Bangladesh. Therefore, the paper aims to examine the gender difference and educational discipline difference in the university's students' entrepreneurial intention in relation to contextual factors in Bangladesh. In this study, sample has been particularly taken from the different disciplinary students of private universities. Five-point Likert scale-based survey questionnaire was developed based on past researches. 280 online survey forms were distributed among the university students and finally 225 students' response were found correct as the study sample size (final survey response rate = 80%), after eliminating the incorrect survey responses. For statistical analysis SPSS 23.0 version is used. One-way ANOVA is used to measure the gender and discipline difference on entrepreneurial intention among male and female students. The results show that business information and social network will have more influence on male students' entrepreneurial intention, and comparatively, business students have more willingness to become entrepreneurs than other departmental students.
