Figge et al.) published an article in\u00a0<em>Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In their paper \u201cShades of Grey or Black and White? How Entrepreneurs\u2019 Use of Cognitively Complex Language Affects Investor Funding\u201d, the authors examine how entrepreneurs\u2019 use of cognitively complex language\u2014language that involves nuance, differentiation, and comparison\u2014influences funding decisions of early-stage investors. Arguing that perceived cognitive complexity matches investors\u2019 prototypical construals of entrepreneurial competence, they hypothesize a positive relationship between an entrepreneur\u2019s use of cognitively complex language and the investment amount they receive. The study introduces a more nuanced portrayal of complexity in entrepreneurial communication, accentuates the role of entrepreneurs\u2019 signals of cognitive dispositions, and introduces the concept of cognitive complexity, and linguistic displays thereof, to entrepreneurship theory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For further information, please visit&nbsp;<a
