In this study, we seek to reproduce the findings of Yu et al. (2021) concerning entrepreneurial orientation (EO), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and firm performance using a sample of Russian SMEs. We conduct a quasi-replication study, systematically changing the data, measures, and construct within our empirical models. The results of our study are partly in line with the original study{\textquoteright}s findings: we did not find a significant relationship between hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms and EO. However, when we considered different sub-dimensions of EO (innovativeness, proactiveness, and risk-taking), managers with hyperactivity/impulsivity ADHD symptoms exhibited greater innovativeness, proactiveness, and risk-taking, while managers with inattention ADHD symptoms exhibited opposite effects. We discuss the extent to which the effects of ADHD on firm performance in developed economies, as mediated by EO, are generalizable within an emerging economy.}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Shirokova,Galina Shirokova and Shakina,Elena and Gerasymenko,Violetta} } @conference {1968351, title = {Re-examining Constraints And Ventures{\textquoteright} Learning: The Case Of Business Accelerator Programs}, booktitle = {Frontiers of Entrepreneurship Research}, year = {2021}, month = {2021}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Gerasymenko,Violetta and Cho,Sam Yul and Arthurs,Jonathan and Choi,Yohan} } @article {1968361, title = {How and When Investment Horizons Determine Venture Capital Firms{\textquoteright} Attention Breadth to Portfolio Companies.}, journal = {Entrepreneurship, Theory and Practice}, volume = {44}, year = {2020}, month = {2020}, pages = {475-503}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Gerasymenko,Violetta and Arthurs,Jonathan and Cho,Sam Yul} } @article {1971086, title = {When do organizations learn from successful experience?

the cognitive effort towards new versus familiar aspects of a business. We
explore this question in the context of venture capitalists{\textquoteright} (VCs) advice-giving
to their portfolio companies on business topics on which they have
advised other ventures in the past, versus on topics new to the VC that
may be outside their areas of expertise. We use both demand-side
(venture-driven) and supply-side (VC-driven) perspectives to build a novel
theory about the antecedents of cognitive effort underlying advice-giving.
By empirically testing our theory using a novel dataset, we find that both
perspectives explain important aspects of advice-giving dynamics for VCs.
This supports the idea that VCs, facing dynamic environments and capacity
constraints, definitely respond to stimuli from ventures, but also that VCs
change their behavior as they accumulate experience in ways that reflect
expanding confidence in their ability to add value and concerns about overextension
of their efforts, depending on the valence of VC experience. Our
findings provide novel insights to the antecedents of cognitive effort and to
research on the VC-venture relationship by exploring the dynamics of how
these advice-giving relationships evolve over time as VCs gain experience.}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Gerasymenko,Violetta and Eggers,J.P.} } @article {1971096, title = {Taking a Second Look in a Warped Crystal Ball: Explaining the Accuracy of Revised Forecasts}, journal = {Journal of Management Studies}, volume = {53}, year = {2016}, month = {2016}, pages = {1292-1319}, keywords = {Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Gerasymenko,Violetta and Coff,Russell and Durand,Rodolphe} } @article {1971101, title = {Changing the Business Model: Effects of Venture Capital Firms and Outside CEOs on Portfolio Company Performance}, journal = {Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal}, volume = {9}, year = {2015}, month = {2015}, pages = {pages 79-98}, abstract = {This study extends extant research on business model change by examining the impact of venture capital firms (VCFs) on the performance of young ventures that have substantially changed their business model.
