20.500.12556/RUL-143651 Keep it positive exploring the relationship between stress, positive affect, wellbeing, and success of entrepreneurs Entrepreneurs’ wellbeing is of unprecedented importance given their crucial role in national economies in terms of job creation and innovation. In this research, we used a mixed methods approach to investigate the direct and indirect mechanisms by which entrepreneurs’ wellbeing mediates the effects of stress on perceived entrepreneurial success. We theorize that entrepreneurs experience work-related stress and that the level of perceived wellbeing mediates the relationship between the entrepreneurs’ stress and perceived success. We also hypothesize moderation effects by dispositional positive affect. We find that stress has direct negative effects on entrepreneurs’ wellbeing and perceived success. However, an experience of positive affect significantly weakens the negative effects of stress by broadening and building entrepreneurs’ cognitions. Drawing from our theoretical and empirical findings, we discuss implications for theory and practice in the domain of entrepreneurs’ wellbeing. family career work-life balance stress positive affect wellbeing entrepreneur success mixed-method družina kariera usklajevanje službenega in zasebnega življenja stres true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2023-01-05 11:57:39 2023-01-05 12:02:57 2024-03-01 12:00:25 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 15 str. art. 970797 Vol. 13 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 331.3 1664-1078 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.970797 123072259 Keep_it_positive_Exploring_the_relationship_between_stress,_positive_affect,_wellbeing,_and_success_of_entrepreneurs.pdf Keep_it_positive_Exploring_the_relationship_between_stress,_positive_affect,_wellbeing,_and_success_of_entrepreneurs.pdf 1 FF7A1224C09F949F36FF4D187C17483B 107e46aebb47eb56cb630e476020c2570b7818196158a4a0a6001de0b69c33b1 1d08b08d-8ce8-11ed-9c94-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=165489 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2022.970797/full 0 21ff7fe4-8ce8-11ed-9c94-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=165490 Ekonomska fakulteta 0 0 0
