The following statement in paragraph seven of the "Results" section: Specifically, the likelihood that entrepreneurial effort will be allocated toward high-growth activities is higher the greater the extent of a country's financial capital targeted at entrepreneurship (Hypothesis 1), the greater the extent of a country's educational capital targeted at entrepreneurship (Hypothesis 2), and the greater the extent of a country's regulatory protection.

should read: Specifically, the likelihood that entrepreneurial effort will be allocated toward high-growth activities is higher the greater the extent of a country's financial capital targeted at entrepreneurship (Hypothesis 1), the greater the extent of a country's educational capital targeted at entrepreneurship (Hypothesis 2), and the smaller the extent of corruption among a country's economic actors (Hypothesis 4).
