Validation of corporate environmental citizenship measurement in Malaysia

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to validate the corporate environmental citizenship measurement originally developed by Banerjee (2002) in the Malaysian setting. Design/methodology/approach A systematic sampling technique was used, with a total of 251 responses. The measurement was tested using content validity, convergent validity and discriminant validity. Findings The study finds that all four dimensions are highly suited for measuring corporate environmental citizenship in the construction companies in Malaysia. Social implications This study theoretically conceptualized corporate environmental citizenship as a multidimensional construct containing four dimensions. Originality/value This study contributes to the body of knowledge by validating corporate environmental citizenship measurement in the Malaysian context as measurement validation studies are scarcely found.
