Social entrepreneurship: a measurement instrument
by Andrés Chinchilla; Mayte Garcia
International Journal of Social Entrepreneurship and Innovation (IJSEI), Vol. 4, No. 1, 2016

Abstract: The study of social entrepreneurship has shown increased development recently particularly emphasising the conceptual and qualitative perspectives, resulting in literature that shows a gap in the lack of a measurement instrument to assess this phenomenon. This uncovers an opportunity to develop a scale to measure the main characteristic and challenge of social entrepreneurship, which is the management of the duality of objectives presented in meeting economic and social aims. The purpose of this study is to develop a scale that measures the social and economic orientations of entrepreneurship in the context of an emerging economy in Latin America.
