Abstract
One of the major roadblocks in conducting Environmental Corporate Social Responsibility ECSR research is operationalization of the construct Existing ECSR measurement tools either require primary data gathering or special subscriptions to proprietary databases that have limited replicability We address this deficiency by developing a transparent ECSR measure with an explicit coding scheme that strictly relies on publicly available data Our ECSR measure tests favorably for internal consistency and interrater reliability as well as convergent and discriminant validity
