以往的研究表明，家族企业与非家族企业在企业社会责任（CSR）的总体衡量标准方面存在差异。我们认为企业社会责任是一个多维的概念，包括几个方面，从员工关系到生态问题和产品问题。基于组织和家族认同的视角，我们认为家族所有权的影响在企业社会责任的各个维度上是不同的。家族企业在企业社会责任方面可以是负责任的，也可以是不负责任的。我们使用美国大型公司的数据集来检验我们的假设。我们的贝叶斯回归表明，家族所有权与社区相关的企业社会责任绩效呈负相关，与企业社会责任的多样性、员工、环境和产品相关方面呈正相关。家族所有权对企业社会责任绩效的最大正向影响存在于企业社会责任中与产品相关的方面。版权所有(c) 2013 John Wiley & Sons， Ltd和ERP Environment
Previous research has shown that family firms differ from non-family firms with regard to aggregate measures of corporate social responsibility (CSR). We argue that CSR is a multidimensional concept that comprises several aspects, which range from employee relations to ecological concerns and product issues. Based on an organizational and family identity perspective, we argue that the effect of family ownership can differ across various CSR dimensions. Family firms can be responsible and irresponsible regarding CSR at the same time. We use a dataset of large US firms to test our hypotheses. Our Bayesian regressions show that family ownership is negatively associated with community-related CSR performance and positively associated with diversity-, employee-, environment- and product-related aspects of CSR. The largest positive effect of family ownership on CSR performance exists with regard to product-related aspects of CSR. Copyright (c) 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment
