La generación de confianza en un contexto de intercambio social: la relación supervisor-supervisado

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to figure out if common trust generator factors in economic exchange contexts perform equally when they are applied to social exchange contexts. Analysing the relationship supervisor-subordinate and variables such as distributive justice, shared values, psychological contract breach and psychological empowerment on a sample of 519 faculties, we conclude that distributive justice and shared values improve subordinate’ trust while psychological contract breach reduce it. Regarding psychological empowerment, we conclude that meaning and self-determination dimensions work out like trust antecedents but competence and impact do not show significant relationships with dependent variable.
