虽然许多研究将信任视为一种情境建构,但个体差异可以用来研究和预测信任行为。我们报告了两项研究,第一项研究显示了一个新的信任库存(信任倾向调查或PTS)的心理测量学特性,第二项研究使用标准的经济任务,投资游戏来验证这个库存。第一项研究利用在线调查数据(N > 8000)表明PTS量表是可靠的,并测量了与大五人格领域相关的广泛结构。信任与外向性和负性神经质有关,可信度与宜人性和谨慎性有关。第二项研究(N = 90)验证了PITS信任量表作为投资游戏中行为的预测因子。这些发现证明了信任和可信度是复合人格特质,PTS量表比一般的大五人格测量更适合预测信任行为。(C)2008年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Although many studies treat trust as a situational construct, individual differences can be used to study and predict trusting behavior. We report two studies, the first showing the psychometric properties of a new trust inventory (the Propensity to Trust Survey or PTS), the second study validating this inventory using the standard economic task, the Investment Game. The first study utilized online survey data (N > 8000) to show that the PTS scales were reliable and measured broad constructs related to Big Five personality domains. Trust was related to extraversion and negative neuroticism, and trustworthiness was related to agreeableness and conscientiousness. The second study (N = 90) validated the PITS trust scale as a predictor of behavior in the Investment Game. These findings are evidence that trust and trustworthiness are compound personality traits, and that PTS scales are preferable to general Big Five measures for predicting trusting behavior.
