Definition Entrepreneurial Emotion:
" Entrepreneurial emotion refers to the affect, emotions, moods, and/or feelings – of individuals or a collective – that are antecedent to, concurrent with, and/or a consequence of the entrepreneurial process, meaning the recognition/creation, evaluation, reformulation, and/or the exploitation of a possible opportunity." (Cardon et al., 2012:3)
Example: 'Inspiration' (already investigated by Souitaris et al., 2007)
My methodology: Ex-ante/Ex-post survey as well as follow-up survey
Would be favorable if the Entrepreneurial Emotion variable relies on a theory.
