“…Third, we build on institutional logics research (Battilana and Dorado, 2010; Zhao and Lounsbury, 2016) to inform our understanding of social entrepreneurship antecedents and outcomes (Jayawarna, Jones and Macpherson, 2020; Kaushik et al. , 2023). The presence of social and of commercial logics in social enterprises may be compatible or incompatible and could potentially prove detrimental to organizing efforts and outcomes (Besharov and Smith, 2014).…”

This paper examines the influence of founding team entrepreneurial experience (for‐profit and non‐profit) on social enterprise performance and also considers the contingent effects of two forms of external financial capital (commercial and philanthropic finance), through the lens of both human capital and institutional logics. Using a global dataset of social enterprises, we find that non‐profit entrepreneurial experience boosts social enterprise performance. Additionally, we find that having a complementary institutional logics (social or commercial) fit between the founding team's human capital and external financial capital is positively associated with social enterprise performance.

Opportunity as a construct has been widely examined in for-profit entrepreneurship research, but it is scarcely studied in the context of social entrepreneurship. It is being observed that many entrepreneurs venture into social enterprise because they perceive it as an opportunity. This study aims to address this phenomenon by extensively identifying the opportunity indicators that promote entrepreneurs to pursue social entrepreneurship. We accomplish this by employing a mixed-methods approach wherein we used both quantitative and qualitative data from experts and analysed it using a hybrid approach of Delphi rounds and the best-worst method. We identified 13 opportunity indicators from the literature, and in the first round of Delphi, four new indicators were added to the list by a panel of 24 experts drawn from industry and academia across India. In the second round of the Delphi method, 18 of the 24 experts took part and rated the importance of each indicator on a 5-point Likert scale. Depending on the availability of the experts, both rounds of Delphi were held in person and virtually. Based on the cut-off levels for standard deviation, interquartile range, and probability of occurrence, experts agreed on 16 indicators. Furthermore, a best-worst method approach was used to prioritise these indicators based on the opinions of industry and academic experts. The study used a theoretical lens of entrepreneurial opportunity and its two different views: objectively discovered and subjectively perceived. The results revealed a consensus among academicians and practitioners for objectively discovered opportunity indicators, which gave the highest priority to “institutional support” and “funding opportunities.“

“…For instance, Chen et al ( 2020 ) employed the structural topic model to identify topics in 3,342 articles published in Computers & Education , a leading educational technology journal, with the aim of identifying major research topics and potential future directions in educational technology. Kaushik et al ( 2023 ) utilized the latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) model to mine topics from 3,844 articles related to social entrepreneurship that were obtained from the Scopus and Web of Science (WOS) databases and identify latent research topics and future development trends in social entrepreneurship studies. Wang et al ( 2023 ) also used the LDA to mine topics from 8,197 articles related to health-promoting behaviors among miners that were obtained from the WOS database to assist researchers with grasping the core research topics and potential future directions in that domain.…”

IntroductionEarly reading has gained significant attention in the academic community. With the increasing volume of literature on this subject, it has become crucial to assess the current research landscape and identify emerging trends.MethodsThis study utilized the dynamic topic model to analyze a corpus of 1,638 articles obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection to furnish a lucid understanding of the prevailing research and forecast possible future directions.ResultsOur in-depth assessment discerned 11 cardinal topics, among which notable ones were interventions' impacts on early reading competencies; foundational elements of early reading: phonological awareness, letters, and, spelling; and early literacy proficiencies in children with autism spectrum disorder. Although most topics have received consistent research attention, there has been a marked increase in some topics' popularity, such as foundational elements of early reading and early literary proficiencies in children with autism spectrum disorder. Conversely, other topics exhibited a downturn.DiscussionThis analytical endeavor has yielded indispensable insights for scholars, decision-makers, and field practitioners, steering them toward pivotal research interrogatives, focal interest zones, and prospective research avenues. As per our extensive survey, this paper is a pioneering holistic purview of the seminal areas of early reading that highlights expected scholarly directions.
