Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Do entrepreneurs work less or harder when they borrow more? This article tests how entrepreneurial effort is affected by the firm's financing choice. In line with the typical agency theory prediction, entrepreneurial effort is negatively related to the magnitude of the equity financing. Furthermore, accounting for firm and entrepreneur heterogeneities, I find that entrepreneurs work less when they use more debt financing, and higher firm risk leads to greater entrepreneurial effort reductions.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
