“…Results indicated that the dimensions of locus and controllability were highly correlated, r(69) = .35, p < .01. Although contrary to the theorizing of Weiner (1979Weiner ( , 1986 who argued for the orthogonality of these three dimensions, the current findings are consistent with the work of Vallerand and Richer (1988) and Folkes (1984) who reported similar significant correlations between the locus and controllability dimensions when using the CDS. Pedersen et al (2006) hypothesized that attributional processes play a key role in determining levels of aggression in the context of inconsistent target information.…”

“…In marketing literature, this theory helps explain consumers' responses to product failures (Folkes, 1984;Dawar and Pillutla, 2000) and their evaluations of companies that engage in social sponsorship (Rifon et al, 2004) or cause-related marketing (Ellen et al, 2000;Dean, 2003;Sjovall and Talk, 2004), two forms of CSR engagements. As in previous literature, Heider's (1944) When consumers observe that a company communicates about its CSR engagement but have no other information about the firm, they probably attribute this communication to the current sustainability trend, which is an extrinsic motive.…”

“…Previous studies investigate the consequences of attributions (Kelley and Michela, 1980) and suggest that an attribution of a specific behaviour as intrinsically or extrinsically motivated influences attitudes toward the actor (Robertson and Rossiter, 1974;Folkes, 1984;Klein and Dawar, 2004). …”
