“… Muehlfeld, Urbig, and Iitzel (2017) found that when compared to others, entrepreneurs had a higher likelihood of persisting in the face of failures. These authors further discuss that “rather than simply being averse to losses, their persistence when faced with adversity may partially result from accepting losses as an inevitable part of exploratory learning” (p. 535).…”

“…Also, scholars have examined the difficulty of the goals entrepreneurs set for themselves (Baron, Franklin, & Hmieleski, 2016). This stream of motivation research has also explored aspirations, including the practicing entrepreneurs' development aspirations (Doern & Goss, 2014), aspirations for growth (Wiklund & Shepherd, 2003), and entrepreneurs' inclination to persevere with current exploration activities (Muehlfeld, Urbig, & Weitzel, 2015). Others have examined aspirations for corporate entrepreneurship among engineers and scientists within established firms (Marvel & Lumpkin, 2007) and members within family businesses (Minola, Brumana, Campopiano, Garrett, & Cassia, 2016).…”

Entrepreneurship is multifaceted. The purpose of this review is to acknowledge and critically assess the many and varied dependent variables (DVs) of entrepreneurship over the last 17 years. By focusing exclusively on systematically reviewing entrepreneurship’s DVs, this paper maps out, classifies, and provides order to the phenomena that scholars consider part of this self-defined field of research. Using a systematic selection process and an inductive approach to categorization, we offer a meta-framework for organizing entrepreneurship’s DVs. On the basis of this meta-framework, entrepreneurship involves the (a) initiation, (b) engagement, and (c) performance of entrepreneurial endeavors embedded in (d) environmental conditions in which an entrepreneurial endeavor is the investment of resources into the pursuit of a potential opportunity. For each category, we offer both a review of the different DVs and opportunities for future research.

“…As shown in Table 1, there are a few other studies examining a younger group of participants in their 20s (Hockerts 2017;Muehlfeld et al 2017;Davis et al 2017;Bacq and Alt et al). Nevertheless, these young participants are university students instead of true entrepreneurs.…”

“…These two general research questions are intrinsically related because cognitive development leads to behavioral patterns. Among the cognitive studies, research questions include: how entrepreneurial experience affects exploratory perseverance (Muehlfeld et al 2017); how fear of failure mediates the relationship between obstacles and entrepreneurial activity (Kollmann et al 2018); and how to understand entrepreneurial identity through metaphor and drawing (Clarke and Holt 2017). There is also a wide range of questions explored in behavioral studies.…”

Entering the third decade of the new millennium, the millennial generation is stepping into their most productive stage of life. We have witnessed a number of exemplary millennial entrepreneurs, such as Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook. The world's economy is evolving fast and presenting distinct entrepreneurial opportunities to millennials across the globe. It is critical that scholars of international entrepreneurship explore the new breed of millennial entrepreneurs and contrast them across generations and countries. Regrettably, the extant literature comes up short in fully addressing the new generation of entrepreneurs. We call for immediate scholarly attention on millennial entrepreneurs as they are in substantive ways unlike all earlier generations. We urge researchers to explore the unique characteristics of millennial entrepreneurs, their influence on entrepreneurial motivation, orientation, opportunity discovery and exploitation process, and the global ambition of their entrepreneurial ventures.
