“…The negative association between CSR and productivity change for investments in our results are in line with those of Granderson (2006), who suggested CSR activities limit the productive effects of productivity change. Our finding of a positive association between CSR and inefficiency change for materials and other direct inputs is in line with previous studies (Guillamon‐Saorin et al, 2018; Hou et al, 2019; Sun & Stuebs, 2013; Wang et al, 2014). It should be noted though that the aforementioned studies found a positive relation between CSR and the efficiency of all inputs simultaneously, whereas our study analyzes the relationship for each input separately.…”

“…Within the second stream of literature, a few studies have investigated the relationship between technical or cost efficiency and CSR in specific sectors, such as the semiconductor industry (Lu, Wang, & Lee, 2013), the telecommunications industry (Wang, Lu, Kweh, & Lai, 2014), the chemical industry (Sun & Stuebs, 2013), banking sector (Zhu, Stjepcevic, Baležentis, Yu, & Wang, 2017), thrift institutions (Vitaliano & Stella, 2006), the creative industry (Hou, Lu, & Hung, 2019), and the manufacturing industry (Jacobs, Kraude, & Narayanan, 2016). Only Guillamon‐Saorin et al (2018) took a broader perspective by investigating the association between CSR and technical inefficiency in different sectors.…”

This study examines the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and dynamic productivity change of each input employed and investment undertaken in the US food and beverage manufacturing industry. We compute input‐ and investment‐specific dynamic Luenberger indicators and decompose them into the contributions of input‐ and investment‐specific dynamic technical inefficiency changes and dynamic technological changes. We then relate these indicators to an overall CSR measure and aspect‐specific CSR measures (governance, environment, and social). Our results confirm that the association between CSR and productivity change has different signs and effects on specific inputs or investments. We also find that only certain aspects of CSR participate in the association between CSR and dynamic productivity change and its components. [EconLit citations: C61, D24, L66, M14].

“…Recent CSR approaches have changed the organization’s approach to revenue generation and improved their business profiles in terms of environmental, economic, social, legal, regulatory, and organizational objectives [ 4 ]. A plethora of previous studies have extensively explored CSR from a macro-level perspective [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. However, the impact of CSR strategies at the level of employees (CSR-E) is not well-explored in previous literature.…”

Organizational crisis can serve as a base to provide an opportunity to an organization for enhancing individuals, organizations, and communities. The healthcare sector is one of those sectors that remains under continuous pressure to provide high-quality service delivery to the patients. Hence, the requirement of innovation for this sector is huge when compared to other sectors. The majority of the previous studies have investigated the phenomenon of CSR at the employee’s level (CSR-E) to influence employee behavior positively. However, the importance of CSR-E to enhance the innovative capability of the employees at the workplace is not well-explored in extant literature. Moreover, it is not clear from previous studies how the concept of servant leadership can explain the employee’s engagement towards innovative work behavior (EIB). Thus, the current survey aims to test the relationship of CSR-E and EIB in the healthcare sector of Pakistan with the mediating effect of servant leadership. The data of the current study were obtained through a self-administered (paper-pencil) survey and they were analyzed through the structural equation modeling (SEM) technique. The empirical results of SEM analysis revealed that CSR-E and EIB are positively related and servant leadership partially mediates this relationship. The findings of the current study will be helpful for policymakers to improve their understanding towards CSR-E to induce EIB in the time of crisis. At the same time, the current study also highlights the importance of servant leadership to the policymakers in encouraging the employees to display their innovative capability at the workplace to serve their organization during the time of crisis.

“…In the design process, the brain receives repeated conscious and subconscious cognitive processing. The subconscious hint has impact on the emergence of creative thinking in graphic design, and the subconsciously produced creative inspiration can continuously push the design process forward (Hou et al, 2017). In the present study, it is believed that subconsciousness will have an impact on graphic creativity, and that, under the conditions with and without subconscious hint, there will be differences in EEG signals and EEG dynamic analysis between the experimental group and the control group, and there will also be essential differences in the design manuscripts of the experimental group and the control group (Kaye, 2009).…”

In order to explore the role of the subconsciousness in creative graphic design and the physiological response mechanism of the brain in the creative inspiration emergence of the graphic design, this study explores the relationship between the subconsciousness and the creative graphic design. The study first gives an overview and definition of unconsciousness of the brain, and then reveals its role in the process of artistic creation with the posters of famous design masters as examples. In addition, in order to study the changes of EEG signals in creative graphic design, the contrast experiment is designed with urban image graphic creation as the example, and the changes in subconsciousness of the brain and the dynamics of EEG signals during the whole process from the fuzzy concept to the development of creative inspiration are recorded during the graphic design process. This paper research is helpful to guide the designer to face up to the brain subconscious impact in creative design, a more scientific cognitive brain subconscious relationship with graphic design, improve the use efficiency of creative thinking.
