This research explores the effectiveness of SRB acquisition (versus brand development) in increasing firm CSR perceptions and the moderating role of symbolic brand value in this relationship. This research demonstrates that SRB acquisition (vs. development) is generally less effective in signaling firm CSR and that the effect of SRB acquisitions on firm CSR perceptions depends on the acquired brand’s symbolic value. Seven experiments show that when symbolic brand value is high, acquisition (vs. development) of SRB harms the acquired brand’s credibility and subsequently reduces firm CSR perceptions. Two additional studies explore the role of brand architecture and communication strategies in mitigating the negative impact of highly symbolic, SRB acquisitions on consumers’ perceptions of firm CSR.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15123,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Research","volume":"201 ","pages":"Article 115705"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145107188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent literature suggests that hierarchy can undermine team performance by discouraging low-status members from voicing their potentially valuable insights.

Based on analyses of archival data collected from an online crowdsourcing contest community, we find that informal hierarchy negatively affects crowdsourcing team performance and idea quantity serves as the mechanism. Furthermore, we show that this negative effect can be attenuated by two types of team familiarity: familiarity established by prior shared working experience and familiarity with hierarchical working relationships. Taken together, we contribute to the literature on crowdsourcing teams, hierarchy, and MIP-G framework.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15123,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Research","volume":"201 ","pages":"Article 115711"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145106635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Grounded in the theory of mind perception and expectation disconfirmation theory, we present findings from multiple experiments demonstrating that severe errors, regardless of type, evoke negative consumer responses. In contrast, minor social errors seem anticipated and mostly elicit responses more akin to those for error-free AI performance.

The findings indicate that characters in narratives glorifying greed are considered more desired future work selves in comparison to characters in critical or non-greed narratives. Morally ambiguous greedy characters were perceived through a “winner frame” of self-made success, and were associated with lower empathy levels, while narratives from a “victim perspective” – with characters suffering as a result of financial malpractice – were associated with higher empathy levels.

The results demonstrate that HABs events significantly diminish the market valuation of coastal enterprises, with impact magnitude driven by the scale and duration of outbreaks while exhibiting no significant association with disaster intensity. The adverse impacts of HABs are dynamic and persistent, leading to destabilized corporate credit, reduced cash flow, and diminished market confidence among management and institutional investors. Notably, small and medium-sized enterprises, non-state-owned firms, and businesses in economically developed regions experience disproportionate losses in market performance and enterprise value.

This motivates us to conduct a systematic review of the literature to explore the current state-of-the-art literature on sustainable and responsible information disclosure in supply chains. Based on this review, we synthesize effective strategies and propose the <em>ETHICS</em> framework (i.e., Elimination of ESG-washing, Technology-enabled communication, Holistic multi-tier view, Industry collaboration, Customization of standardized frameworks, and Synthesis of ESG metrics). The <em>ETHICS</em> framework helps manage, report, and improve ESG performance in supply chains through ESG information disclosure. We also identify five key directions for future research: (1) assessing and quantifying social information before disclosure, (2) collecting and disclosing social information in real time, (3) optimizing the timing of information flows from indirect suppliers, (4) managing social responsibility in supply chain partnerships, and (5) understanding buyers’ roles as information recipients versus senders.
