DESCRIPTION:Dr. Viviana He\, ETHZ\n"Entrepreneurial failure experience and
  learning behaviors: Evidence of curvilinear and moderation effects"Abstra
 ct\nFailure experience urges entrepreneurs to learn. However\, such experi
 ence also generates strong emotions that may prevent entrepreneurs from en
 gaging in learning behaviors. Drawing on Affective Events Theory and entre
 preneurship research on affect and emotions\, we develop and empirically t
 est a theoretical model reconciling the countervailing effects of entrepre
 neurial failure experience. We propose that there is a “threshold” of 
 entrepreneurial failure experience\, beyond which negative emotions outwei
 gh the motivation to achieve better results\, thereby starting to hinder l
 earning behaviors. Using survey data from entrepreneurs in the information
  technology industry we find support for an inverted U-shaped relationship
  between entrepreneurial failure experience and learning behaviors. Furthe
 rmore\, our findings show that emotion regulation moderates the curvilinea
 r relationship. When entrepreneurial failure experience runs beyond the 
 “threshold\,” the higher the emotion regulation\, the more positive th
 e effect of such experience on learning behaviors. We discuss implications
  of these findings for entrepreneurship research and practice.
