The multnomal logstc regresson model presented an overall percentage correctness of 54.1%. The results show that the odds of an experts beng an entrepreneur over beng an educator, teacher, entrepreneurshp researcher ncreases wth the ncrease n the percepton of the people workng for government agences are competent and effectve n supportng new and growng frms. The same results were found for the odds of beng nvestor, fnancer, and banker and polcy maker. Furthermore, the odds of beng a polcy maker over beng an educator, teacher, entrepreneurshp researcher ncreases wth the ncrease of the percepton of the markets for busness-to-busness goods and servces change dramatcally from year to year. The same effect s observed for busness and support servces provder. Addtonally, the odds of beng a busness and support servces provder also ncreases wth the ncrease of the ant-trust legslaton s effectve and well enforced. Key-Words: - Entrepreneural Framework Condtons, Global Entrepreneurshp Montor, Multnomal Logstcs Regresson 1 Introducton One of the major drvers of economc growth s entrepreneurshp [1]. There has been a growng nterest n promotng entrepreneural actvty both on publc and prvate ntatves [2], [3]. In an effort to fll the lack of comparable nternatonal data on entrepreneurshp, the Global Entrepreneurshp Montor (GEM) began n 1999, as a jont project between Babson College (USA) and London Busness School (UK). Snce then GEM has been the source of comparable data across a large varety of countres on atttudes toward entrepreneurshp, startup and establshed busness actvtes, and aspratons of entrepreneurs for ther busnesses [3]. The data collected by GEM has presented a fast growth. The number of countres ncluded n the GEM data collecton ncrease from 10 countres n 1999 to more than 100 countres n In fact, accordng to the 2016 GEM Global Report, GEM covers 69.2% of the world s populaton and 84.9% of the world s Gross Domestc Product (GDP). The two man sources of prmary data of the GEM project are: () the Adult Populaton Survey (APS), whch provdes standardzed data on entrepreneural actvtes and atttudes wthn each country; and () the Natonal Expert Survey (NES), whch nvestgates the natonal framework condtons for entrepreneurshp by means of standardzed questonnares. Furthermore, GEM-based scentfc publcatons have presented a large ncrease n a wder range of academc journals [3], n partcular usng APS. By usng emprcal data, the GEM project ams for: (a) assessng the level of entrepreneural actvty across countres, (b) understandng how entrepreneural actvty vares over tme, and (c) understandng why some countres are more entrepreneural than others. Explorng the relatonshp between entrepreneural actvty and economc growth, and dentfy whch publc polces boost entrepreneurshp s also one of the ams of GEM. Accordng to the GEM methodology the Entrepreneural Framework Condtons (EFCs) are condtons that enhance (or hnde) new busness creaton. Therefore, E-ISSN: Volume 15, 2018
2 Elana Costa E Slva, Aldna Correa, Alexandra Braga, Vtor Braga entrepreneurshp dynamcs can be lnked to condtons these condtons [6]. Accordng to Bergmann, Mueller, & Schrettle [5], the data provded by GEM offers the possblty to pose research questons that could not have been addressed before. The data s avalable at the webpage of the GEM project. For Álvarez, Urbano, & Amorós, 87% of the artcles use APS data, whle only 3% use the NES nformaton, and 10% use both nformaton sources[2]. It s clear that the nformaton provded by NES s an untapped resource for future publcatons. Also, snce NES ndvdual level fles are not commonly used for wrtng GEM reports, they are best ndcated to carry out academc research. Addtonally, 42% of the emprcal studes use logt, probt and tobt models, 29% use multple lnear regresson analyss assocated wth the macro level, 13% use panel data, and 16% use other technques. Addtonally, the dependent varables are mostly related to entrepreneural actvtes n general (59%), ndcators of entrepreneural aspratons (14%), female entrepreneurshp (10%), by studes that use dependent varables related to economc ssues, especally growth and economc development (5%). Furthermore 5% of the research artcles attempt to explan perceptons of opportuntes and motvatons to become an entrepreneur, whle 7% use fnancal aspects as the dependent varable [2]. For further nformaton on the statstcal technques used see [5]. Sánchez-Escobedo et al. analyzed the stuaton and development of research, usng data from the GEM n the perod from 1999 to 2015, n entrepreneurshp from a gender perspectve [8]. Global APS s used n 32.5% of the research papers publsh n journals of entrepreneurshp ncluded n the Web of Scence (WOS), whle 37.5% use Natonal APS, 20% use APS and NES and 10% use APS and secondary sources, such as, OECD, World Bank, US Census, Hertage Foundaton, Encyclopeda Brtannca, BBVA Foundaton. In terms of the Statstcal technque of analyss, 20% of the works use descrptve analyss, 52.50% use descrptve analyses and logstc regresson, whle the remanng use other technques such as Panel data, ANOVA, MANOVA, Bootstrappng, Structural equatons. In ths paper the 2013 NES data provded by GEM s analyzed and a multnomal logstcs regresson approach s followed wth the objectve of analyzng the effects of dfferent type of entrepreneurshp expert specalzaton on the perceptons about the Entrepreneural Framework Condtons (EFCs). 2 Dataset and Model Estmaton The data used n the present work was collected from the GEM webste and concerns the ndvdual NES 2013 dataset. The NES survey collects data concernng the perceptons on entrepreneurshp of experts n dfferent countres. From survey to survey there are dfferences n terms of the varables consdered. However, the country s Entrepreneural Framework Condtons (EFCs), namely: A - Fnancng for Entrepreneurs; B - Governmental Polces; C - Governmental Programs; D - Entrepreneural Educaton and Tranng; E - R&D Transfer; F - Commercal and Professonal Infrastructure; G - Internal Market Openness; H - Physcal and Servces Infrastructure; I - Socal And Cultural Norms. are the same from survey to survey. In the present work, as response varable, the categorcal varable SPE s used. Ths varable characterzes the expert type and was defne usng the dummy varables SPE1, SPE2, SPE3, SPE4 and SPE5 (for detals see [6], [7]). The SPE varable has fve categores: 1=entrepreneur; 2=nvestor, fnancer, banker; 3=polcy maker; 4=busness and support servces provder; and 5=educator, teacher, entrepreneurshp researcher. As ndependent varables all NES varables ncluded n the EFCs, from A1 to I05 are used, n a total of 52 varables. Followng the common procedure adopted when workng wth real-world data, such as GEM data, the ndependent ordnal (lkert lke scale) NES varables are consder as contnuous. See Table 7 for the varable descrpton. Snce the observatons are ndependent, the dependent varable SPE s measured at the nomnal level wth fve mutually exclusve and exhaustve categores and snce there s no multcollnearty (the Varance Inflaton Factor s <3), a multnomal logstcs regresson approach s adequate for ths analyss. From a total of 2636 observatons, 1227 are vald. The mssng values correspond to the number of observatons n the dataset where data are mssng from the response varable or from any of the predctor varables. For the majorty of these observatons the experts are Entrepreneur ; 14.3% are Polcy makers ; 12.7% are Busness and support servces provder ; 10.2% are Investor, E-ISSN: Volume 15, 2018

The dependent varable has only one value observed n 1223 (99.8%) subpopulatons. A backward stepwse method, mplemented at IBM SPSS verson 23, was used to estmate the multnomal logstc regresson model, and chsquare for varables entry and removal, based on the lkelhood rato test, were consdered. Table 2 presents model fttng nformaton. By ncludng the predctor varables, the Fnal model mproves when compared to the Intercept Only model as can be seen by the Akake Informaton Crteron (AIC), Bayesan Informaton Crteron (BIC) and log lkelhood. The lkelhood of the model s used to test of whether all predctors regresson coeffcents n the model are smultaneously zero. From the Lkelhood rato Ch-Square statstc a p- value < was obtan, therefore, at least one of the regresson coeffcents n the model s not equal to zero,.e. the model s sgnfcant. Note that the degrees of freedom of the ch-square dstrbuton s the number of predctors n the model.

Table 4 presents the Lkelhood rato tests and shows that from all the ndependent varables consdered only the followng are statstcally sgnfcant, for a sgnfcant level of 10%: A03 In my country, there are suffcent government subsdes avalable for new and growng frms ; A04, there s suffcent fundng avalable from prvate ndvduals (other than founders) for new and growng frms ; B02, the support for new and growng frms s a hgh prorty for polcy at the natonal government level ; B05, the amount of taxes s NOT a burden for new and growng frms ; B06, taxes and other government regulatons are appled to new and growng frms n a predctable and consstent way ; C03, there are an adequate number of government programs for new and growng busnesses ; C04, the people workng for government agences are competent and effectve n supportng new and growng frms ; E02, new and growng frms have just as much access to new research and technology as large, establshed frms ; E03, new and growng frms can afford the latest technology ; G02, the markets for busness-to-busness goods and servces change dramatcally from year to year ; G04, the new and growng frms can afford the cost of market entry ; G06, the ant-trust legslaton s effectve and well enforced. Recall that the underlyng null hypothess s that the parameters of that varable are zero. Table 4 also presents the overall effect of each varable. The parameter estmates for the multnomal logstc regresson model are depcted n Table 5. The E-ISSN: Volume 15, 2018

The same occurs for the odds of beng nvestor, fnancer, banker and polcy maker. The odds of beng a polcy maker over beng an educator, teacher, entrepreneurshp researcher ncreases wth the ncrease of the percepton of the markets for busness-to-busness goods and servces change dramatcally from year to year. The same effect s observed for busness and support servces provder.
