(2003) investigate this question employing four empirical approaches: First, they hypothesize nascent entrepreneurship to be a function of the level of economic development of a country, using per capita income as an indicator.

(2003) report that after three years, a minimum of 36% of the sample started and a minimum of 20% abandoned the start-up effort, while there is no information about the eventual start-up status of the remaining 44%.
