英文文献摘要：
Understanding the impact of human capital on small business development is crucial to both entrepreneurs and the entities that serve them. The objective of this study, therefore, is to determine the impact of human capital on entrepreneurs who are approaching firm birth, in order to provide entrepreneurs, small business development centers, and universities with the best resources possible. One hundred twenty-eight entrepreneurs in the gestation period have been contacted through workshops held by Purdue University and the Indiana Small Business Development Center. Sixty-five of those entrepreneurs agreed to participate in a two year study with follow-up information gathered at two month intervals, giving a current response rate of approximately 51%. Data has been and continues to be collected through a survey distributed at various small business development workshops. The preliminary survey instrument used in the analysis requests data regarding: personal demographics, community demographics, human capital, financial capital, and social capital. A logistic regression model was formulated using the preliminary results to determine the relative impact of human capital on an entrepreneur's participation in a small business start-up. Results show that human capital factors, such as college education and having attempted a business plan, are statistically significant. This indicates that funds allocated by small business development entities to the development of human capital are important in determining participation in a small business start-up. In addition to the information provided by the logit model, probabilities have been calculated to simulate those characteristics that affect an entrepreneur in participating in business a start-up. With the results from the two month follow-ups, additional information will be gained regarding the effect of human capital on the actual success or failure of the small business. Through panel data gathered as this study progresses, both entrepreneurs and small business development entities should be able to better understand the impact of human capital on participation in a start-up and the outcome of that start-up.

因此，本研究的目的是确定人力资本对即将成立企业的企业家的影响，以便为企业家、小型企业发展中心和大学提供最好的资源。通过普渡大学和印第安纳小企业发展中心举办的讲习班，已经联系了128名处于怀孕期的企业家。其中65名创业者同意参加一项为期两年的研究，每两个月收集一次后续信息，目前的回复率约为51%。数据已经并将继续通过在各种小型企业发展讲习班分发的调查收集。在分析中使用的初步调查工具要求以下方面的数据:个人人口统计数据、社区人口统计数据、人力资本、金融资本和社会资本。利用初步结果建立了logistic回归模型，以确定人力资本对企业家参与小型企业创业的相对影响。结果表明，人力资本因素，如大学教育和尝试过商业计划，在统计上是显著的。这表明，小型企业发展实体分配给人力资本发展的资金对于决定是否参与小型企业的开办至关重要。除了logit模型提供的信息外，还计算了概率来模拟那些影响创业者参与创业的特征。通过两个月的跟踪调查结果，我们将获得关于人力资本对小企业实际成功或失败的影响的额外信息。通过本研究过程中收集的面板数据，企业家和小企业发展实体都应该能够更好地理解人力资本对参与创业的影响以及创业的结果。
