Factor analysis involves the examination of interdependence relationship, so it shouldn’t be expressed as a hypothesis that establishes dependence relationships. The economic dimension has been added in the former lines 180 and 181. We clarify that figure 1 is original and was created by the authors. Regarding the data, we confirm that it was taken from the official website, during the period between March and May 2021. The link provided (https://bcorporation.eu/directory) was the one used. In the meantime, the site has been changed and the directory of certified companies can be found in another link. Table 2 has been eliminated. To avoid the repetition of information in Table 2 and the paragraph after, we followed the recommendations of another reviewer by placing the paragraph as a footnote. The reduction in the number of companies was based on the analysis of the database and information collected from B Lab that allowed us to see that there was a change in the measurement model used in B Corp certification during the period January 2017 and March 2021. Thus, to ensure the 3 consistency of the database and the statistical analysis subsequently performed, we reduced the database to a recent period in which the same measurement model was used. Finally, the hypothesis was removed since, as suggested by another reviewer, it doesn't state what we are trying to test in this study.
If the rules of the Journal don’t allow to write down the Figures who is the author, I suggest to authors write it in a paragraph before the Fig 1, or in a footnote, according to Editor’s allowance.
