摘要:AbstractMost of the previous studies focus on means of CSR implementation, such as fit, commitment, but few take corporate communication strategy into consideration. Thus, this study adopts 2 (fit: low/high) x 2 (commitment: short-term/ long-term) x 2 (communication strategy: proactive/ reactive) between-subject factorial design to explore the moderating effects of communication strategy. The results show that high-fit CSR activities, comparing to low-fit ones, generate higher values- and strategic-driven attributions. Comparing to short-term commitment, long-term commitment generates higher values- and strategic-driven attributions. Short-term commitment generates higher stakeholder-driven attribution than that in long-term commitment. When proactive communication strategy is taken, high-fit CSR activities generate higher values-driven attribution than low-fit ones. When proactive communication strategy is taken, long-term commitment generates higher values-driven attribution than short-term commitment. Finally, values-driven attribution will positively influence purchase intention.
