“…Por exemplo, em relação a esses últimos, os valores são atributos individuais influenciados culturalmente pelas instituições que estão presentes na vida do empreendedor ao longo das várias etapas, exercendo um efeito importante por meio do processo de socialização (Hofstede, 1991). Apesar de Hofstede (1991) não ter estudado a relação direta entre a cultura expressa nas quatro dimensões que propôs (individualismo/ coletivismo, redução da incerteza, masculinidade/feminidade, distância em relação ao poder) com a atividade empreendedora, essa ligação foi posteriormente estudada por outros autores (Kreiser et al, 2010;Mitchell, Smith, Seawright, & Morse, 2000).…”

RESUMOPretende-se, com este artigo, compreender o efeito de determinadas condições estruturais empreendedoras na oportunidade de contexto em criar novos negócios e, ainda, a influência que essa última oportunidade de contexto tem na capacidade individual em iniciar um novo negócio. A metodologia e os dados recolhidos têm por base o projeto Global Entrepreneurship Monitor. Os resultados do estudo indicam que, em termos globais, apesar de estarmos na presença de duas economias de natureza estrutural diferente, uma orientada para a inovação (Portugal) e a outra orientada para a dotação de fatores (Angola), os resultados obtidos não são significativamente diferentes entre os dois países. Entre as várias relações estruturais propostas, aquela que se apresenta como mais distintiva para os dois países em análise consiste em: quanto mais favoráveis forem as normas culturais e sociais em torno do empreendedorismo, maior a sua influência na educação e formação em empreendedorismo. Apesar de essa hipótese se confirmar para ambos os países, evidencia, contudo, um grau de intensidade diferente. Este estudo é original na medida em que pode fornecer pistas e orientações relevantes aos decisores políticos sobre o tipo de medidas a adotar em empreendedorismo. PALAVRAS-CHAVE | Especialistas nacionais, empreendedorismo global, Global EntrepreneurshipMonitor, fatores institucionais, novos negócios. ABSTRACT This article aims at understanding the influence of entrepreneurial conditions (or factors) on start-up opportunities for new ventures and, in turn, the impact of such opportunities on the capacity to start an own-business. The methodology and data collected draw upon the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) project. The results of our study are not significantly different between the examined countries (Portugal and Angola). Among several proposed structural relationships, the study concludes that favourable cultural and social norms for entrepreneurship show a positive impact on the education and training in entrepreneurship in the two sub-samples (Portugal and Angola). Although this statement is confirmed for both countries, the strength of the relationship is different for each. This study is original as it can assist public policy makers to design improved policies and better allocate resources to increase entrepreneurship.

“…An increasing number of scholars aims to get a better understanding of entrepreneurial cognition by comparing the cognitions of novice and experienced entrepreneurs (e.g., Baron & Ensley, 2006;Dew et al, 2009;Mitchell, Smith, Seawright, & Morse, 2000). These scholars share a common research tradition, but over time different literature genres with different terminologies (e.g., use of schemas, scripts, or cognitive frameworks), interpretations, and methodologies have developed (Dew et al, 2009).…”

“…Expert schemas illustrate how successful entrepreneurs use and transform information that other, novice entrepreneurs, miss (Mitchell et al, 2000). A schema is "a pedagogical mental structure, one that enables learning by facilitating memory retrieval and the learner's capacity to make inferences on the basis of current knowledge" (Glaser, 1984, p. 101).…”

“…In short, schemas guide individuals' performance when working on a certain task or problem (Driscoll, 1999). Expert schemas are connected to a specific domain and highly developed and ordered, as they have been refined, questioned, and sharpened over years of experience into expert schemas (Glaser, 1984;Mitchell et al, 2000). In addition, Driscoll (1999) argues that experts' approach to problem solving involves the recognition of certain patterns that they have seen previously, in similar problem situations.…”
