What are the effects of core self-evaluation (CSE) and ESE on EO among SME owner-managers?
This study examined the direct relationship of CSE on EO as well as mediating role of ESE on CSE and EO.
The network sampling technique was used to collect data. The network of students in upper-level management courses at a US university was utilized. They asked the students to draw samples from SME owner-managers that they know. The final sample size was 470 responses. Hierarchical OLS multiple regression was used to test hypotheses.
The overall results show that CSE doesn’t associate with EO but with ESE and ESE associates with EO. ESE mediates the relationship between CSE and EO.
The practical implications from this paper are that ESE should be a potential intervention in the training programs. The owner-managers should be trained or made aware of their self-efficacy which can influence EO and result in performance improvement of the venture.
What I think this paper should revise is that they should conclude that there is a partial mediation or indirect relationship of ESE on CSE and EO. It’s because the main direct effect between CSE and EO is not significant.
