, quantitative analysis for both face validity and contentvalidity evidence can be evaluated using various metrics. Face validity evidence for theinstrument was evaluated using Item Face Validity Index (IFV-I), Universal Agreement ScaleValidity (S-IFV/UA), and Average Scale Face Validity (S-IFV/Ave) [27]. The IFV-I indicatesthe percentage of raters who assign an item with clarity of 3 or 4. The S-IFV/Ave is calculatedby averaging the IFV-I scores across all items on the scale, or alternatively, the mean clarity andcomprehension ratings from all raters. The proportion of clarity is determined by averaging theindividual ratings provided by each rater. The S-IFV/UA refers to the proportion of items on thescale that receive clarity ratings of 3 or 4 from

search of Google Scholar yields over five million research documents using orpurporting to define “innovation,” many in very specific contexts or with certain connotations [5]. Whilethere are some papers using innovation and invention interchangeably, there is a significant trend toinclude bringing the idea to practice, or implementation, as necessary for innovation.In order to emphasize the consequences (positive or negative) of innovation and link it directly toeconomic development, we expand the definition to: Innovation = Idea + Implementation + Impact.This is the first set of three “I”s – those used in defining innovation succinctly. The purpose of thisexpansion is to add clarification as to the components that

Potential issues include the following:Selective Data ReportingResearchers involved in a startup or commercial activity might be tempted to present select dataor manipulate data, either intentionally or subconsciously (Cho et al., 2000). This can involvefocusing on specific datasets that align with the desired outcome for a venture, or altering data orits presentation. In extreme cases, this can lead to falsifying results, undermining scientificintegrity and trust in the individual researcher(s) and their research community.Suppression of Alternative HypothesesWhen the focus of research is closely tied to commercialization outcomes, there can be anunintended suppression of alternative hypotheses that might not support the new venture or itsbusiness

[20] adopted Walters et al.’s [21] PostsecondaryInstructional Practices Survey (PIPS) to measure the teaching practices of university chemistryinstructors. Compared to the inventory, the survey instruments are designed over a theoreticalframework and can be organized into factors related to the assessed constructs. While inventoriescan characterize classroom teaching, surveys can be more specific and include constructs such asself-efficacy or teaching beliefs in their design.

This study adjusted Haynie et al.’s entrepreneurial metacognitionmodel to build the conceptual model (Figure 1).
