Perceptions of Firm Quality: A Cause or Result of Firm Performance
Abstract
This article examines two issues regarding the formation and effects of qualitative perceptions offirm performance: First, do firm quantitative measures of performance influence perceptions offirm management quality? Second, do perceived firm qualities affect measures of firm financial performance? We examined data from Fortune magazine's survey of corporate reputations as a source for measures of perceivedfirm quality. The results suggest thatfinancial measures of both risk and return influenced perceptions offirm quality. Moreover, perceptions offirm quality, though correlated with the subsequent performance of specific financial performance measures, were generally more closely related to priorfinancial performance than to subsequent financial performance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
