Family Diversity and Hybrid Entrepreneurship: A Family Embeddedness Perspective
2025
Overview
How does family diversity affect the choice of hybrid entrepreneurship? The effect of family dynamics has received little attention in research on the mode of entry into entrepreneurship. Building on the family embeddedness perspective, we hypothesize that the diversity of family households at surface (i.e., age and gender) and deep (i.e., work experience and education background) levels impacts the entrepreneur's adoption of a full-time or hybrid mode to start a new business. We further theorize that the effects of family diversity on entrepreneurial entry decisions are moderated by income stratification, which largely determines the ways entrepreneurs deal with family diversity. Using a sample of 1,320 individual-wave observations from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS), our findings demonstrate that the choice of hybrid entrepreneurship is affected more by deep-level diversity than surface-level diversity among family households. Moreover, being from a high-strata family strengthens the relationship between surface-level diversity and the choice of hybrid entry, while weakening the effects of deep-level diversity. This study contributes to the ongoing discussion about family dynamics and entrepreneurship variations and provides important theoretical and practical implications. 家庭多样性如何影响家族成员去选择兼职创业还是全职创业？本文基于家庭嵌入视角，假设家庭在表层特质（如年龄和性别）和深层特质（如工作经验和教育背景）上的多样性会影响创业者创业模式的选择。进一步，家庭多样性对创业模式的选择会受到家庭收入水平的影响。我们对中国健康与营养调查（China Health and Nutrition Survey，CHNS）1,320个个体-期的观测样本进行了分析，发现与表层特质多样性相比，家庭深层特质多样性更显著地影响家庭成员做出兼职创业的选择。此外，高收入阶层家庭背景会强化家庭表层多样性对于家族成员兼职创业模式的选择，同时削弱家庭深层多样性对兼职创业模式的选择。该研究有助于深入讨论家庭动态与家族成员创业模式的关系，具有重要的理论和实践启示。
