This research aimed to develop a theoretical framework relating environmental corporate social responsibility (environmentally friendly business, compliance with environmental regulations, environmentally friendly products/services, environment-related mission, environmental preservation efforts), service quality, emotional attachment, and word-of-mouth in the full-service airline industry. A quantitative approach with a survey methodology was used for attaining the research goals. Our empirical findings demonstrated that environmental corporate social responsibility plays a crucial role in eliciting airline customers’ word-of-mouth, and that service quality and emotional attached have a critical mediating effect. In addition, price perception moderated the degree of the relationship strength between environmental corporate social responsibility and word-of-mouth. The salient contribution of emotional attachment to the prediction power increase of the proposed model for word-of-mouth was also uncovered. Overall, this research presents apparent understanding of airline corporate social responsibility for the environment and its role in the process of generating word-of-mouth.

La Responsabilidad Social Corporativa, los Intangibles y el Desempeño Dinámico de las Aerolíneas Estadounidenses. En este estudio se emplea en primer lugar el enfoque del análisis dinámico de la envolvente de datos (DEA) para medir el rendimiento operativo de la industria aeronáutica de los Estados Unidos en el período 2006-2014. Examinamos si las aerolíneas incluidas en la base de datos de Kinder, Lydenberg y Domini (KLD) tienen una mayor eficiencia que las aerolíneas no incluidas en la base de datos de KLD. Las siete dimensiones de la responsabilidad social de las empresas (RSE) disponibles en la base de datos KLD se utilizan para representar la RSE. Así, a través de un gráfico de radar, también documentamos la medida en que las compañías aéreas han aplicado cada una de las dimensiones de la RSE. Este estudio también explora la relación entre la RSE y el rendimiento operativo de las aerolíneas. Nuestros hallazgos muestran una relación indirecta entre la RSE y el rendimiento operativo, que se basa en el efecto mediador de los intangibles, después de tener en cuenta el posible problema de la endogeneidad. Los hallazgos de este estudio pueden proporcionar directrices para hacer frente a los problemas de RSE en la industria de las aerolíneas y para implementar políticas de RSE. This study first employs the dynamic data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach to measure the operating performance of the U.S. airline industry for the period 2006-2014. We examine whether airlines included in the Kinder, Lydenberg, and Domini (KLD) database have higher efficiencies than airlines not included in the KLD database. The seven corporate social responsibility (CSR) dimensions available in the KLD database are used to proxy for CSR. Through a radar graph, we thus also document the extent to which the airlines have implemented each of the dimensions of CSR. Next, this study explores the relationship between CSR and the operating performance of the airlines. Our findings show an indirect relationship between CSR and operating performance, which relies on the mediating effect of intangibles, after accounting for potential endogeneity problem. The findings of this study can provide guidelines for coping with CSR issues in the airline industry and for implementing CSR policies.
