Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Dear Authors,

first of all congratulation for your research work. The manuscript is well-written and focuses on a much discussed topic among academics and marketers.

I would suggest only few adjustment:

- In lines 32-33 and 151-152 there is something wrong with text formatting;

- in lines 90-91 the word CSR is repeated twice;

- in lines 153-154 in the brackets should be the number of the reference instead of "Blum and Naylor, 1986".

Regards,

The reviewer

Reviewer 2 Report

The paper presents an interesting topic of the halo effect of CSR activity. It produces some interesting and useful results. In general terms the paper is well written and well argued. However, some revisions are needed.

Research questions (section 1.1) are not formulated in accordance with the aims of the study.

There appears to be lack of consistency in the aims of the study as stated in the Introduction section of the manuscript and that stated under the section on Results.

Inconsistency is also apparent between RQs section and the Results section, (e.g. Why first put your attention to RG2, no to RG1?).

The quality of the details and differences tend to disappear in the mass of presented statistics.

Modify titles of Tables and Figures. You offer too long description, no titles.
