Abstract

Welcome to the 6th year birthday of Journal of Trust Research! We have published five volumes already. In the past 5 years, we have published 33 regular articles, 12 specialforum articles, and 11 editorial essays, thus a total of 56 pieces. Among the 10 issues within the 5 volumes, we have 2 special issues. It is worth noting that most articles published in JTR either focus primarily on interpersonal trust or institutional trust, so the link between interpersonal trust and institutional trust has not been adequately explored. I am excited to report that the current issue has an article on the very topic. More importantly, I am honoured to report that the most impactful contributions from JTR so far seem to derive from three areas. First, JTR has published some of the most critical articles concerning the methodological issues of trust research. For example, JTR has published three key articles in this area: (1) ‘Measuring trust in organization research: Review and recommendations’ by Bill McEvily and Marco Torroiello (Volume 1, Issue 1, 2011); (2) ‘Development and validation of a propensity to trust scale’ by Lance Frazire, Paul Johnson, and Stav Fainshmidt (Volume 3, Issue 2, 2013); and (3) ‘Why the epistemologies of trust researchers matter’ by Neve Isaeva, Reinhard Bachmann, Alexandra Bristow, and Mark Saunders (Volume 5, Issue 2, 2015). We hope that JTR will continue this lead in publishing articles related to the methodological issues of trust research. Second, JTR has published three sets of debate articles. The first set is concerned with future directions for research on the link between interpersonal trust and institutional trust (the two special-forum debate articles were contributed by Reinhard Bachmann and Graham Dietz, published in Volume 1, Issue 2, 2011). The second set is concerned with the role of trust in government (the two special-forum debate articles were contributed by Russell Hardin and Guido Möllering, published in Volume 3, Issue 1, 2013). The third set is concerned with the institutionalisation of trust research (the special-forum debate articles were contributed by Don Ferrin and Vincenzo Perrone, published in Volume 3, Issue 2, 2013). Such debate articles tend to attract more attention than other articles as reflected in more downloads and more citations. To take full advantage of this special type of article, we will encourage and promote more debates over salient issues of trust research in the future. Third, JTR has published two special issues, both of which are interdisciplinary in nature, which is particularly appropriate given JTR’s role as an interdisciplinary trust journal.

信任的整体和情境性质:过去、现在和未来的研究
欢迎来到信任研究杂志的六周年生日!我们已经出版了五卷。5年来,共发表常规文章33篇,专题论坛文章12篇,社论文章11篇,共计56篇。在5册的10期中,我们有2期特刊。值得注意的是,JTR上发表的大多数文章要么主要关注人际信任,要么主要关注制度信任,因此对人际信任与制度信任之间的联系没有进行充分的探讨。我很兴奋地告诉大家,本期杂志上有一篇关于这个话题的文章。更重要的是,我很荣幸地报告,JTR迄今为止最具影响力的贡献似乎来自三个领域。首先,JTR发表了一些关于信任研究方法问题的最重要的文章。例如,JTR在这一领域发表了三篇重要文章:(1)Bill McEvily和Marco Torroiello的“衡量组织研究中的信任:回顾和建议”(2011年第1卷第1期);(2) Lance Frazire, Paul Johnson和Stav Fainshmidt的“信任倾向量表的开发和验证”(第3卷,第2期,2013);(3) Neve Isaeva、Reinhard Bachmann、Alexandra Bristow和Mark Saunders合著的《为什么信任研究者的认识论很重要》(第5卷,2015年第2期)。我们希望JTR在发表与信任研究方法问题相关的文章方面继续保持这种领先地位。第二,JTR发表了三套辩论文章。第一组是关于人际信任和制度信任之间联系的未来研究方向(两篇特别论坛辩论文章由Reinhard Bachmann和Graham Dietz贡献,发表在2011年第1卷第2期)。第二组涉及信任在政府中的作用(两篇特别论坛辩论文章由罗素·哈丁和圭多Möllering贡献,发表于2013年第1期第3卷)。第三组与信任研究的制度化有关(特别论坛辩论文章由Don Ferrin和Vincenzo Perrone贡献,发表于2013年第3卷第2期)。这样的辩论文章往往比其他文章吸引更多的关注,这反映在更多的下载和更多的引用上。为了充分利用这一特殊类型的文章,我们将在未来鼓励和推动更多关于信任研究的突出问题的辩论。第三,JTR出版了两期特刊,都是跨学科性质的,这对于JTR作为跨学科信任期刊的角色来说尤为合适。第一期特刊(第4卷,第1期,2014年)侧重于信任在经济学中的作用,特别是信任对交易成本的影响(嘉宾编辑Guido Möllering)。第二期特刊(2015年第1期,第5卷)聚焦于信任在国际关系中的作用(客座编辑:希斯基·豪卡拉、约翰娜·沃雷尔玛和卡里娜·范德韦特林)。为了继续努力扩大跨学科的报道范围,我们正在计划更多的特刊,包括即将出版的关于

期刊介绍: As an inter-disciplinary and cross-cultural journal dedicated to advancing a cross-level, context-rich, process-oriented, and practice-relevant journal, JTR provides a focal point for an open dialogue and debate between diverse researchers, thus enhancing the understanding of trust in general and trust-related management in particular, especially in its organizational and social context in the broadest sense. Through both theoretical development and empirical investigation, JTR seeks to open the "black-box" of trust in various contexts.
