Psychology Corporate Social Responsibility Firm Size Organizational Attraction The main purpose of the current study was to investigate the effects of firm size and corporate social responsibility (CSR) on organizational attraction (focusing on the dimensions of general company attractiveness and job pursuit intentions and exploring the third dimension of prestige). Given that most CSR research has focused on large companies, this study examined medium, small, and micro firms in addition to large firms. A total of 255 participants read one of eight hypothetical job ads and then completed the study’s measures. Results showed that CSR did not have a significant main effect on any of the three dimensions of organizational attraction. CSR and firm size also did not have a significant interaction on any dimension of organizational attraction. However, results showed that there was a significant difference in perceived social image, such that the job ads with CSR were rated significantly higher on social image than the jobs ads without CSR. Although the hypotheses were not supported, this research shed light on the relations among CSR, firm size, and organizational attraction. Findings also highlighted the importance of further examining the relations among CSR, social image, and organizational attraction in future research. 2014-12-02 English text Xavier University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=xavier1410450556 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=xavier1410450556 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
