“…Cronbach’s alpha was used to test the internal consistency between item scales for each factor involved (Cortina, 1993). Due to the lower number of items per construct and the small sample size, a Cronbach’s alpha value of >.50 was used as a benchmark to assess internal consistency (Chui & Chan, 2012).…”

High levels of trust, reciprocity, and togetherness embedded within entrepreneurial networks are believed to facilitate cooperation that enables success among individual business owners. This study examines the effects of social influence, network characteristics, and entrepreneurial motivations on trust, reciprocity, and togetherness in a network of wildlife tourism microentrepreneurs. Thirty-seven wildlife tourism microentrepreneurs from North Carolina’s Pamlico Sound Region were recruited for in-person structured interviews. Data were analyzed using social network analysis, specifically a series of linear network autocorrelation models in conjunction with supportive qualitative assessment. Microentrepreneurs expressing a high level of trust were connected with microentrepreneurs expressing a low level of trust in their peers. Conversely, microentrepreneurs with strong feelings of reciprocity were connected with microentrepreneurs having similar feelings. These findings illustrate that the presence of equally reciprocal relationships is not an indication of equally trusting relationships. The findings also suggest that higher numbers of business ties tend to diminish the levels of trust, reciprocity, and togetherness toward connected peers.

“…Illicit drug use among youth is of concern in Hong Kong because of the availability of drugs in this globalized city (Mak & Day, 2012). Essentially, even though the prevalence of the use is low in Hong Kong youth (about 3.0%, Cheung & Cheung, 2006), the use is culturally impermissible (Chui & Chan, 2012;Mak & Day, 2012). To expedite early detection and treatment, the government of Hong Kong sponsors outreaching social work teams to engage street youth who are at risk of drug use and other delinquent activities (Cheung & Ngai, 2009).…”

Youth at risk of illicit drug abuse and other delinquent acts are the target of social work services. Preventing or discouraging the use of illicit drugs among at-risk youth is a long-standing practical and research concern. For this reason, the preventive function of courage is a research gap the present study seeks to fill. The study collected data from 169 at-risk youths and their social workers with two-wave panel surveys. Results show that courage in Wave 1 presented a strong negative effect on illicit drug use in Wave 2 in the youth, controlling for illicit drug use in Wave 1 and background characteristics. Moreover, the negative effect was stronger when Wave 1 drug use was more likely. These results imply the helpfulness of encouraging at-risk youth to gather courage to resist the temptation to use illicit drugs.
