Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This research examines whether firms who issue these reports are really more socially responsible or if they are merely trying to convince stakeholders that they are. We use the CSID index as an independent evaluation of firms’ level of CSR and find that firms that issue standalone CSR reports every year do have significantly higher Total CSR, CSR Strengths and CSR Weaknesses than firms that never issue these reports. Additionally, we find that firms that issue standalone CSR reports in some years have higher Total CSR and CSR Strengths scores than firms that never issue standalone CSR reports. Our results provide support for the explanation that firms who issue standalone CSR reports do so as a signal of their superior commitment to social responsibility actions. We found minimal support for the argument that firms who issue standalone CSR reports are more profitable.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
