Abstract

The individual willingness to trust is compared to the inclination to take lottery risk in six distinct scenarios, controlling the return distributions. Trust responds to changes in the admissible return levels, but exhibits significantly smaller responsiveness to return expectations compared to parallel risk-taking. Paired comparisons suggest that the investors sacrifice 5% of the expected payoff to trust anonymous responders. Trust is more calculated and volatile for males, while appearing relatively stable for females. The results connect with evidence regarding physiological differences between trust and risk-taking, and in addition suggest that trust is more of a distinctive trait for females compared to males. The paper broadly discusses the results and their implications, connecting to diverse streams in the trust literature.

信任稳定性和冒险行为的性别差异

在控制收益分布的六种不同情况下，将个体信任意愿与彩票风险倾向进行比较。信任对可接受回报水平的变化有反应，但与平行冒险相比，对回报预期的反应明显较小。配对比较表明，投资者牺牲了5%的预期收益来信任匿名应答者。对男性来说，信任是经过深思熟虑的，也是不稳定的，而对女性来说，信任则相对稳定。研究结果与信任和冒险之间的生理差异有关，此外还表明，与男性相比，信任对女性来说更像是一种独特的特征。本文广泛地讨论了结果及其含义，并与信任文献中的不同流相联系。

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.
