Abstract
The purposes of this research are to examine how individuals’ cognition is related to the rate of entrepreneurial start-ups and how this relationship can be modified by three institutional pillars. Drawing upon a multilevel analysis and a global context comprising 67 countries, cross-level analyses are performed to assess the joint effects of entrepreneurial cognition and institutions on the rate of entrepreneurial start-ups. The findings confirm the role of entrepreneurial cognition (i.e. self-efficacy, risk attitude, and opportunity perception) in individuals’ decisions to start new businesses and reveal how this relationship can be diversely influenced by country-level institutional pillars. This paper could be useful for designing policies to promote entrepreneurial activity through institutions in different countries.
