Abstract
Objective: This article aims to examine the knowledge structure and research gaps in the field of entrepreneurial agency. Agency, as a fundamental concept, refers to the ability to act and the manifestation of this ability in various actions, and in entrepreneurship, it is interpreted as “the power of individuals to change their environment.” Although this trait plays a significant role in shaping entrepreneurial behaviors and decisions, it has received less attention due to its complexity and multidimensional aspects, making a deeper study essential to identify the existing knowledge structure and research gaps in this area.
Methodology: This study employs bibliometric analysis and gathers 3,627 academic documents, specifically English-language articles, from the Web of Science database. Through co-citation and co-occurrence keyword analysis, conceptual clusters were identified.
Findings: The findings indicate that the dimensions of agency have been primarily examined across seven main areas: entrepreneurial intention, entrepreneurial self-efficacy, entrepreneurial education, institutional theory, social entrepreneurship, and cultural contexts. Entrepreneurial intention, entrepreneurial self-efficacy, and self-regulation are dimensions of agency that have received more attention in entrepreneurship research. However, forethought and self-reflection have been less emphasized and require further investigation
Conclusion: Interventions, such as education and mentoring, can strengthen entrepreneurial agency in different individuals and provide a deeper understanding of the role of environmental factors in the development of this field.
