Abstract

Organizations have widely initiated corporate social responsibility activities via social media channels. This study investigated the relationship among public’s CSR social media use, perceived CSR motives, trust in organizations’ ability and benevolence, and relational commitment. The survey results demonstrated that CSR media use and perceived CSR motives had indirect effects through the mediation of trust in ability and benevolence, in which trust benevolence played a more critical role. The theoretical and practical implications were discussed.
