WORKSHOP: Institutional Trust and Confidence: An Interdisciplinary Workshop, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, April 24-25, 2014

研讨会将通过汇集来自不同社会科学领域(包括犯罪学、法学、管理学、政治学、心理学、公共行政和社会学)的资深和初级研究人员来推进信任研究，他们有兴趣走向机构信任的综合理论。智力价值：对机构的信任对治理和组织、法院和司法系统的运作等至关重要。尽管有这么多学科研究与信任有关的问题并影响与信任有关的政策，但在机构信任和信心的综合框架方面的发展相对较少。研讨会将纳入多个研究领域，以建立信任理论和信任的质量衡量标准。它扩展了专注于衡量信任、信心以及感知的合法性和正义的研究人员的工作。通过汇集不同研究人员的见解，讲习班将增进关于信任和信心的知识，为社会科学领域作出贡献，并促进对信任的综合理解的目标。将多个研究领域结合起来，将极大地改变我们对这一主题的理解。更广泛的影响：衡量信任对制定政策至关重要。对政府缺乏信任一直是各个政治派别感到沮丧的一个原因，官员们试图重新赢得公众对各种机构的信任。与此相关的是，在商业中，增强信任是成功的核心。因此，更好地理解信任具有帮助社会的巨大潜力。参加该讲习班的研究人员将继续通过其咨询服务和研究出版物影响各机构和组织。讲习班还将帮助初级研究人员和学生，让他们接触社会科学各领域的领导人，并提供参与编写一本关于信任的配套书籍的机会。最后，我们将准备一份最终报告，以便这次研讨会？S的贡献可以作为其他研究项目和聚会的样板。

The Workshop will advance trust research by bringing together senior and junior researchers from a variety of social science areas (including criminology, law, management, political science, psychology, public administration, and sociology) who are interested in moving toward integrated theories of institutional trust.Intellectual Merit: Trust in institutions is critical to governing and the functioning of organizations, courts and judicial systems, and so on. Despite so many disciplines studying trust-related issues and influencing trust-related policies, there is relatively little in the development of an integrated framework of institutional trust and confidence. The Workshop will incorporate multiple research areas to build trust theory and quality measures of trust. It extends the work of researchers who have focused on measuring trust, confidence, and perceived legitimacy and justice. By bringing together insights from diverse researchers, the Workshop will advance knowledge on trust and confidence, contributing to areas of social science and furthering the goal of an integrated understanding of trust. Incorporating multiple research areas has great potential to transform our understanding of this topic. Broader Impacts: Measuring trust is essential for policymaking. Lack of trust in government has been a source of frustration across the political spectrum, and officials seek to regain public trust in various institutions. Relatedly, in business, enhancing trust is core to success. Thus, better understanding trust has tremendous potential to assist society. The researchers involved in this Workshop will continue influencing institutions and organizations through their consulting services and research publications. The Workshop will also aid junior researchers and students, exposing them to leaders across areas of social science, and offering the opportunity participate in the development of an accompanying book on trust. Finally, we will prepare a final report so that this Workshop?s contribution can be used as a model for other research projects and gatherings.
