| Abstract
|
:
|
Despite significant research on the role of new venture team member characteristics on new venture success, results have been mixed and difficult to interpret. A primary reason for the mixed results is the use of demographic characteristics as proxies for underlying human capital (Klotz, Hmieleski, Bradley, & Busenitz, 2014; Nyberg, Moliterno, Hale, & Lepak, 2014; Ployhart & Moliterno, 201). Using upper echelons theory and human capital research as a theoretical framework, this study tested the role of both demographic characteristics as well as psychological characteristics, which are important yet rarely tested human capital characteristics, in predicting in new venture performance (Colbert, Barrick, & Bradley, 2014; Klotz, Hmieleski, Bradley, & Busenitz, 2014; Oh, Kim, & Van Iddekinge, 2014; Wang, Holmes, Oh, & Zhu, 2016). Compared to demographic characteristics, psychological characteristics are important because they represent direct measures of the underlying human capital. Moreover, by including psychological characteristics, this study examines whether the psychological characteristics that have been related to new venture performance at the individual entrepreneur level, are beneficial at the team level, and whether psychology-based human capital resources predict unique variance in new venture performance beyond demographic characteristics.
