Figure 9

Model illustrating factors influencing human trust. It demonstrates that a willingness to engage in trusting behavior is predicated upon a variety of trustee, trustor, and contextual factors as well as by the perceived trustworthiness of the trustee, and the trustor's propensity to trust. Finally, perception of risk influences the trustor's willingness to engage in a trusting behavior. All of this results in the trust interaction outcome.

Revised model for factors influencing trust. Model is revised from Mayer et al. (1995). Solid lines and solid boxes demonstrate concepts previously uncovered as factors exerting force on trust between people. Dotted lines and boxes demonstrate those newly uncovered factors which were found to affect trust between people. The width of the dotted lines demonstrates the extent to which the factors have an effect on trust.

Supplemental material Appendix A: Studies Used in this Meta-Analysis was omitted. The Supplemental material file has been updated in the original article.
