“…Numerous traits have been ascribed to entrepreneurs; however, there have been contradictory findings with respect to the relationships of these characteristics to entrepreneurship (Hansemark, 2000(Hansemark, , 2003Koh, 1996;Malach-Pines et al, 2002;Miner and Raju, 2004;Rauch and Frese, 2000;Zhao and Seibert, 2006).

“…Alternative measures, first and foremost the questionnaire, are therefore recommended for further studies of motivation (Harper, 1975). Consequently, a number of scholars have developed written instruments as alternatives to the TAT (e.g., Gjemse & Nygård, 1970;Hansemark, 2000;James, 1998;Lennerlöf, 1966;Mehrabian, 1969Mehrabian, , 1970. Mehrabian and Bank (1978) have tested an improved version of Mehrabian's (1969) scales.…”

“…Bu nedenle bu alanda güvenirlik ve geçerlik düzeyi test edilmiş ve yüksek olan ölçme araçlarına ihtiyaç vardır. Literatürde girişimcilik eğilimini değerlendirmek için tematik algı testi (Caird, 2013;Fineman, 1977;Hansemark, 2000) gibi farklı testlerin yanında girişimcilik eğilimleri ölçeği (Çemrek ve Girginer, 2017;Yılmaz ve Sünbül, 2009), bireysel girişimcilik algı ölçeği (Yalçın İncik ve Uzun, 2017), bireysel girişimcilik eğilimi ölçeği (Şart, 2020) gibi veri toplama araçlarının bulunduğu görülmektedir. Hansemark (2000) çalışmasında algı testleri ile yapılan çalışmalarda girişimcilik eğilimlerinin belirlenmesinin uzun süre işe yaramadığını ifade etmiştir.…”
