and whether HR plays a mediating effect on the relationship of CQ to SP. Applying the PLS-SEM approach to a
Hongcun Village sample of 142 homestay inn entrepreneurs, this study finds that CQ promotes HR and SP. However, only the
Motivational CQ and Cognitive CQ dimensions positively influence HR and SP separately. The mediating effects
of HR are also validated on the overall path from CQ to SP and the Motivational CQ to SP. The findings confirm
the validation of the assumption “With great ability, comes greater responsibility and greater results in business”
in tourism entrepreneurship. Finally, some theoretical and managerial implications of the findings are discussed.
