The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of various literatures related to consumer search for information, and its effect on markets. Normative models of consumer search prior to purchase, and of consumer search through experience, are reviewed first. Models of consumer consideration set formation are also outlined. These models are generally based on consumers balancing the costs and benefits of search, which implies that search should be limited if it is costly. The extensive empirical literature on consumer search, which is reviewed next, does indicate that search is limited. The third major section of this review discusses the effect of search on market equilibrium, and market forces related to the supply of information. These include models of how advertising, retailing, and the Internet become organized to facilitate consumer search. The review concludes with a discussion of overall findings and suggestions for further research.

Since the first International Corporate Identity Group’s symposium in 1994, the fields of corporate identity, corporate communications and corporate branding have become a focal point for scholars and managers alike. Recently, the term corporate marketing has incorporated a host of key corporate-level concepts, representing a new paradigm of thought. Contemplating Corporate Marketing, Identity and Communication is a collection of papers and extended abstracts from the 12th ICIG symposium, presenting a variety of perspectives with a view towards stimulating debate about the advances in corporate marketing, identity and communication. The contributions in this volume examine critically the development of the field and focus for future research in order to encourage cutting-edge scholarship along with practitioner insights. In a field characterized by paradoxes – unity and variety; integration and specialization – the aim is to integrate diverse practices to inspire a more sophisticated approach or theoretical framework. The papers in this volume are both challenging and distinctive.

Researchers, corporate leaders, and other stakeholders have shown increasing interest in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)--a company's discretionary actions and policies that appear to advance societal well-being beyond its immediate financial interests and legal requirements. Spanning decades of research activity, the scholarly literature on CSR has been dominated by meso- and macro-level perspectives, such as studies within corporate strategy that examine relationships between firm-level indicators of social/environmental performance and corporate financial performance. In recent years, however, there has been an explosion of micro-oriented CSR research conducted at the individual-level of analysis, especially with respect to studies on how and why job seekers and employees perceive and react to CSR practices. This micro-level focus is reflected in 12 articles published in this edited volume as a research topic collection in Frontiers in Psychology (Organizational Psychology Specialty Section) titled "Corporate social responsibility and organizational psychology: Quid pro quo."

In corporate dynamics, organizations grapple with a pressing dilemma—how to balance the pursuit of success with the well-being and sustained mental health of their workforce. Across industries, employees find themselves burdened with an ever-growing array of responsibilities, a phenomenon that takes a toll on their physical and emotional well-being, ultimately jeopardizing productivity. The pervasive threat of burnout looms large, necessitating a nuanced understanding of the intricate interplay between employee welfare and organizational prosperity. Recognizing the escalating prevalence of mental health issues, particularly in developing nations, scholars are intensifying their focus on the need for comprehensive studies to unearth strategies that can mitigate workplace stress and enhance the overall mental health of employees. This critical exploration forms the crux of our upcoming book, Nurturing Prosperity: Impact of Corporate Social Responsibility on Employee Wellbeing, where we unravel the profound influence of CSR on the multifaceted dimensions of employee wellness. This book presents a comprehensive synthesis of the latest empirical research findings and relevant theoretical frameworks. Tailored for academic scholars, it aims to deepen the understanding of the strategic role of trust in various domains within the information and knowledge society. Encompassing the global economy, networks and organizations, teams and workgroups, information systems, and individual actors in networked environments, the book elucidates how CSR practices can be leveraged to foster employee wellbeing in diverse settings.
