| Riepilogo: | Using a sample of multinational firms in Germany, we develop and empirically examine a model to test the effects of ethical climate and its antecedents on purchasing social responsibility (PSR).

The results also show that top management ethical norms and code of conduct implementation impact PSR directly as well as indirectly through ethical climate. |
