The present study investigates how developable behavioral (strengths use) and cognitive (meaning-making) mechanisms moderate the relationship between personal growth opportunities and entrepreneurial performance. We relied on a cross-sectional design. Data were gathered from 208 Romanian entrepreneurs and analyzed via hierarchical multiple linear regressions. The employed moderators boost the investigated relationship, both separately and interactively. The three-way interaction shows that entrepreneurs have to employ strengths use and meaning-making concomitantly to be able to capitalize on growth opportunities effectively. Consequently, this will enable entrepreneurs to rate their business performance more positively because they will perceive they have the necessary resources to invest in the business. Conversely, at low levels of strengths use and meaning-making, the presence of growth opportunities erodes entrepreneurial performance. This study identifies strengths use and meaning-making as vital psychological tools that allow an increase in entrepreneurial performance thus altering business-related investment and continuance decisions.

增长机会和创业绩效:测试优势使用和意义制造作为关系的调节器

本研究调查可发展的行为(优势使用)和认知(意义创造)机制如何调节个人成长机会与创业绩效之间的关系。我们依赖于横截面设计。数据来自 208 名罗马尼亚企业家,并通过分层多元线性回归进行分析。受雇的主持人分别和互动地促进了调查的关系。三向互动表明,企业家必须同时运用优势和意义,才能有效地利用增长机会。因此,这将使企业家能够更积极地评价他们的业务绩效,因为他们会认为他们有必要的资源来投资业务。相反,在低水平的优势使用和意义创造中,增长机会的存在会削弱创业绩效。本研究将优势使用和意义构建确定为重要的心理工具,可以提高创业绩效,从而改变与业务相关的投资和持续决策。
