Journal Mission
Trust is imperative to constructivesocial interaction and cooperation at and acrossall levels. Positioned as a high-impact source journal providing novel ideas for other journals (both academic and practical), the mission of JTR is:
-
to inquire into the nature, form, base and role of trust as well as the mechanism and stage of trust-building and trust repairat and across personal, group, organizational, community and nationallevels so as to facilitate andstimulate informed academic dialogue anddebate toward an integrative body ofknowledge via both relevant and rigorous theory-building and theory-testing
-
to influence individuals, groups,organizations, communitiesand nations in the choice ofpracticalsolutionsfor theirtrust-related managementby providing the most relevant and rigorous research.
Journal Philosophy
JTR is particularly interested in those studies that are inter-disciplinary, cross-cultural, cross-level, multi-method, context-rich, process-oriented, and practice-relevant in perspectives, so as to effectively investigate the holistic content and dynamic process of organizational and societal trust, without the perils of reductionist assumptions. JTR identifies the above as the emerging trends with thegreatest potential to contribute to our rich and deep understanding about the complexphenomenon of trust.
Journal Scope
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 debatebetween 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.
