To construct unbiased, consistent and validity model, we can receive comparatively reliable result and offer behavioral bases of relevant interested parties. In order to get more robust empirical result, this study processes empirical test with samples divided into three groups: 1) full samples, 2) TobinQ ≥ 1 samples, 3) TobinQ < 1 samples. This research suggests that the sample shows there is apparent influence of the behavior of the managerial and institutional shareholding on social performance; and the relation of the managerial shareholding and social performance is non-linear and concave to the x-axial. It has positive and significant influence on the relationship between social and financial performances; among multiple financial indicators, the sample of businesses with low corporate value is more significant.
