Although the impact entrepreneurial learning on firm performance has attracted significant attention, a comprehensive understanding by integrating entrepreneurial orientation and individual self-efficacy remain poorly understood. We fill this void by integrating the above variables into a model and examine these relations. Findings from a sample of 411 nascent entrepreneurs support that entrepreneurial learning is positively related to firm performance, and this relationship is fully mediated by entrepreneurial self-efficacy (ESE). We also found entrepreneurial orientation strengthens the positive impact of entrepreneurial learning on ESE. The findings indicate that ESE must be in place to maximize the effect of entrepreneurial learning on performance, and entrepreneurial orientation is an important contingency in shaping entrepreneurial learning's impact on nascent entrepreneur's self-efficacy.
尽管创业学习对企业绩效的影响已引起广泛关注，但将创业导向与个体自我效能感整合起来进行全面理解仍存在不足。我们通过将上述变量整合到一个模型中填补这一空白，并检验这些关系。对411名新创企业家样本的研究结果支持创业学习与企业绩效呈正相关，且这种关系完全由创业自我效能感（ESE）介导。我们还发现创业导向强化了创业学习对创业自我效能感的积极影响。研究结果表明，必须具备创业自我效能感才能使创业学习对绩效的影响最大化，而创业导向是塑造创业学习对新创企业家自我效能感影响的一个重要权变因素。
