Item Ganas de Emprender y Felicidad: Un Estudio Exploratorio a Partir del Global Entrepreneurship Monitor en Chile(2013) Hinojosa Martínez, Sergio; Albornoz Pardo, CarlosEn este documento se utilizan datos del Global Entrepreneurship Monitor 2012 (GEM) para estimar empíricamente los determinantes de la Intención de Emprender (IE) en Chile, entre los que se incluye la felicidad. Trabajos previos han estudiado indirectamente, y de manera muy general, el rol de la felicidad en la IE, sin incorporarla como una variable explicativa. En consecuencia, inspirados en las recomendaciones de Casrud y Brannback (2011), y en la invitación de Elfing et al. (2009) de ajustar el modelo estándar de IE [Shapero (1982) y Ajzen (1991)], en este trabajo se introduce la felicidad tanto como una variable específica como moderadora, la cual se estima a través de un modelo LOGIT. Los resultados del modelo muestran que la felicidad se relaciona de manera inversa con la Intención de Emprender. De esta forma, en la medida que es mayor la felicidad, menor es probabilidad de intención de emprender (o viceversa).Item Is Business Creation the Mean or the End of Entrepreneurship Education? A Multiple Case Study Exploring Teaching Goals in Entrepreneurship Education(2013) Albornoz Pardo, Carlos;Entrepreneurship education within higher education has experienced a remarkable expansion in the last 20 years (Green & Rice, 2007). However, entrepreneurship education is still in its infancy; professors propose diverse teaching goals and radically different teaching methods. This represents an obstacle to development of foundational and consistent curricula across the board (Cone, 2008). This study was designed to understand entrepreneurship instructor’s teaching goals. Results suggest that the group of instructors studied pursued two types of profoundly different teaching goals. Some of them were trying to teach how to start a successfully business while another group was trying to develop entrepreneurial skills. Those two types of teaching goals have important implications in terms of pre selection of students, the mandatory or voluntary character of the curriculum, and type of teaching methods used. For instance, if the goal is to create business, students should be selected according to the potential of their ideas, the regimen should be voluntary (students legitimately may want to become great employees), and business plan as teaching methods should be understood a mean rather than an end.
