“Some suggest that uncertainty refers to the “inability to assign probabilities as to the likelihood of future events”(Duncan, 1972; Pennings, 1981; Pfeffer and Salancik, 1978), while others define uncertainty to be “a lack of information about cause–effect relationships” (Lawrence and Lorsch, 1967).”

“…suggests that entrepreneurs maintain high levels of confidence (Busenitz and Barney, 1997; Forbes, 2005) and selfefficacy (Baron andMarkman, 2003; Chen et al., 1998) and that they are driven by a belief in their own ability to “create” in the face of changing and uncertain environments…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
