Abstract
Examinations of corporate social responsibility orientation (CSRO) have tended to concentrate on CEOs and other managers at various levels in large organizations. There has been little check on the effect of firm size or on small business owners’ CSRO. This paper examines those questions as well as others more commonly addressed, such as the effect of gender and industry, to be able to compare small business owners’ response patterns to those of managers in larger firms.
