Table_1_Moderating Effect of Chief Executive Officer Narcissism in the Relationship Between Corporate Social Responsibility and Green Technology Innovation.XLS

This study focuses on the impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on green technology innovation (GTI) of firms and the moderating influence of the chief executive officer (CEO) narcissism through the lens of stakeholder theory and upper echelons theory. This research deconstructs CSR into internal CSR and external CSR in order to reveal the effects of different types of CSR on GTI. Based on a sample of 1,745 firm-year observations from 349 Chinese-listed firms across sectors between 2014 and 2018, we find that the fulfillment of internal CSR has a significant positive impact on GTI. This relationship is strengthened when the CEOs are narcissistic. The external CSR has a significant negative impact on GTI and this relationship is strengthened by CEO narcissism. The major contribution of our study is that it provides a theoretical contribution to the existing literature by deconstructing CSR into internal and external CSRs and enriches the studies in the context of CSR from a point of view of the particular personality trait of a CEO.

本研究基于利益相关者理论与高阶理论，探讨企业社会责任（CSR）对企业绿色技术创新（GTI）的影响，以及首席执行官（CEO）自恋特质的调节效应。本研究将企业社会责任解构为内部企业社会责任与外部企业社会责任，以揭示不同类型企业社会责任对绿色技术创新的作用机制。本文以2014至2018年间各行业349家中国上市公司的1745个公司年度观测样本为研究对象，研究结果显示：内部企业社会责任的履行对绿色技术创新具有显著正向影响，且当首席执行官存在自恋型人格时，该正向关系会得到强化；外部企业社会责任则对绿色技术创新具有显著负向影响，首席执行官的自恋特质同样会强化这一负向关系。本研究的主要贡献在于，通过将企业社会责任解构为内部与外部两大类型，为现有相关文献提供了理论层面的补充，并从首席执行官特定人格特质的视角，丰富了企业社会责任领域的相关研究。
