Abstract

The linkage between risk behavior and entrepreneurship has long been discussed, but there are limited empirical evidences examined in developing country contexts. In order to fill the gap, this study examines the linkage between risk behavior and entrepreneurship based on population data from Indonesia. The data were drawn from the Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) which collected information from 36.376 adults aged 15 or older. The results of logistic regression show that risk taking behavior increases likelihood of entrepreneurship behavior at 1.01 time. (OR = 1.01, p value < 0.05). The results were robust against social demographic characteristics; including income, education, religion, social networks, religion and big five personalities factors The findings indicate the significance of risk taking behavior in the development of entrepreneurship in Indonesia.
