This study newly conceptualizes publics’ institutional associations of government ability and social responsibility associations as unique characteristics of China in times of corporate crisis. By implementing a national survey in China, the study empirically tests how government associations are affected by publics’ perceptions of a crisis and a crisis-involved company. By integrating publics’ corporate and government associations into the situational factors of publics, this study further depicts a comprehensive post-crisis socio-psychological mechanism of publics. The findings of this study shed light on how the problem, constraint, involvement recognitions of publics influence their active communicative action, and in turn, affect post-crisis corporate associations and government associations.
