| Tiivistelmä: | This article examines whether characteristics such as perseverance and self-efficacy co-occur with regretful thinking more among entrepreneurs (hereafter as: ents). Using a random sample of 217 patent inventors in the medical industry it is examined how ents and non-entrepreneurs (hereafter as: non-ents) score considering these characteristics. The results show that compared to non-ents ents score remarkably higher on self-efficacy and on two aspects of perseverance: control over adversity and responsibility concerning outcome of adversity. It is also found that ents report regrets of stronger volume and qualitatively different from the non-ents. |
