摘要

Entrepreneurial failure is prevalent among student entrepreneurs, particularly in resource-constrained regions. Drawing on social capital theory and resilience theory, this study explores how family, institutional, and peer support influence the resilience and re-entrepreneurial intentions of failed student entrepreneurs in Guizhou, China. Based on data from 407 valid questionnaires analysed using structural equation modelling, the results reveal that all three types of support positively predict resilience and that resilience partially mediates the relationship between these support systems and re-entrepreneurial intention. Beyond merely combining two theories, this study contextualises the integrated framework for underdeveloped regions and clarifies the internal mechanisms underlying post-failure entrepreneurial recovery. Practically, the findings suggest that entrepreneurship support programmes should place greater emphasis on failure recovery rather than focusing solely on venture establishment.
