Abstract: In this article, we examine the relationships between personality, age, and sex and three dimensions of corporate social responsibility across a sample of 213 entrepreneurs. It is found that age, sex, and personality differences were able to explain 12.6% of the variance in behavioural differences in CSR with those not agreeable and those more neurotic more likely to exhibit behaviours less supportive of CSR. The differences were able to explain 18.8% of the variance in negative attitudinal differences in CSR with sex, not being agreeable, conscientiousness, and not being stressed being statistically significant. Being supportive of corporate social responsibility the variables were able to explain 9.3% of the variance with males are more likely to be supportive of CSR. Looking at overall low support for CSR had 18.4% of its variance explained with males being the strongest indicator, followed by neuroticism and then low agreeableness.
