摘要

家庭背景对创业很重要,但为什么兄弟姐妹成为企业家的倾向和他们追求的企业类型不同?我借鉴了家庭社会化和资源配置理论,提出了关于家庭结构(包括出生顺序、家庭规模和兄弟姐妹性别)对(成长型)创业的不同影响的假设。我使用公司合并作为成长方向的标志,在瑞典兄弟姐妹的样本中检验了这些假设。与年长的兄弟姐妹相比,晚出生的孩子更有可能成为非法人企业家,部分原因是他们占据了与受教育程度较低和劳动力市场摩擦较高相对应的家庭利基。此外,大家庭中的孩子不太可能追求结合,对男性和早出生的孩子的影响更大,这与他们由于资源稀释而发展自我效能感的能力有限相一致。与异性兄弟姐妹一起长大不会影响创业精神,这表明在瑞典,兄弟姐妹的性别构成可能不会在这一领域培养更强的性别规范或性别类型。本研究整合了现有的研究成果,并提供了新的见解,拓宽了我们对创业家庭背景的理解。

Family structure and entrepreneurship: Evidence from Swedish siblings
ABSTRACT Family background matters for entrepreneurship, but why do siblings differ in their propensity to become entrepreneurs and the type of ventures they pursue? I draw on family socialization and resource allocation theories to develop hypotheses about the differential effects of family structure – comprising birth order, family size, and sibling gender – on (growth-oriented) entrepreneurship. Using firm incorporation as a marker of growth orientation, I test these hypotheses in a sample of Swedish siblings. Relative to older siblings, later born children are more likely to become unincorporated entrepreneurs, partly because they occupy family niches corresponding to lower educational attainment and higher labour market frictions. Moreover, children in very large families are less likely to pursue incorporation, with stronger effects for men and earlier born children, in line with their limited ability to develop self-efficacy due to resource dilution. Growing up with an opposite-gender sibling does not influence entrepreneurship, indicating that sibling sex composition may not foster stronger gender norms or sex-typing in this domain in Sweden. This study integrates existing findings and offers novel insights, broadening our understanding of family background in entrepreneurship.

期刊介绍: Entrepreneurship and Regional Development is unique in that it addresses the central factors in economic development - entrepreneurial vitality and innovation - as local and regional phenomena. It provides a multi-disciplinary forum for researchers and practitioners in the field of entrepreneurship and small firm development and for those studying and developing the local and regional context in which entrepreneurs emerge, innovate and establish the new economic activities which drive economic growth and create new economic wealth and employment. The Journal focuses on the diverse and complex characteristics of local and regional economies which lead to entrepreneurial vitality and endow the large and small firms within them with international competitiveness.
