THEORETICAL BASIS FOR FINANCIAL SUPPORT OF INNOVATIVE PROJECTS WITH A HIGH LEVEL OF RISK should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that A drawback of the traditional VC evaluation process is that perceptual, emotional, and cognitive processes affect the investment decision alongside financial considerations, because the evaluation criteria are applied through subjective human decision making.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
