Trust in a specific technology: An investigation of its components and measures
Abstract
Trust plays an important role in many Information Systems (IS)-enabled situations. Most IS research employs trust as a measure of interpersonal or person-to-firm relations, such as trust in a Web vendor or a virtual team member. Although trust in other people is important, this article suggests that trust in the Information Technology (IT) itself also plays a role in shaping IT-related beliefs and behavior. To advance trust and technology research, this article presents a set of trust in technology construct definitions and measures. We also empirically examine these construct measures using tests of convergent, discriminant, and nomological validity. This study contributes to the literature by providing: (a) a framework that differentiates trust in technology from trust in people, (b) a theory-based set of definitions necessary for investigating different kinds of trust in technology, and (c) validated trust in technology measures useful to research and practice.

“Trustworthiness judgments in humans or technology have different characteristics, yet they both are premised on the same underlying contextual conditions: risk, uncertainty and lack of control (McKnight et al. 2011).”

“Trust in technology has previously been seen in the light of the technology's functionality, ability to provide help and operational reliability and the technology provider's integrity, benevolence and competence-including privacy aspects (McKnight et al., 2011;Prakash and Das, 2020;Ta et al., 2020).”

“In the canonical models of trust formation, such (Giddens, 1990; Mayer et al., 1995; McKnight et al., 2011; Misztal, 1996) trust is described to have a number of different components. First, trust depends on the personal characteristics of the trustor, such as their propensity to trust, something which I do not discuss in this article. Second, trust is a factor of the perceived or actual char”

“Interpersonal trusting beliefs reflect judgments that the other party has suitable attributes and motives for performing as expected in a risky situation (Mayer et al. 1995), whereas technology-related trust necessarily reflects beliefs about a technology's characteristics rather than its motives (McKnight et al. 2011).”

“Most IS research nowadays employs a dualistic perspective on trust (see Table 1).First, trust in a specific person or organization (a moral and volitional agent) (Lankton et al. 2015;McKnight et al. 2011), such as trust in an e-vendor (Gefen et al. 2003) or virtual team members (Robert et al. 2009).”

“In contrast, individuals' trust in technology commonly concerns the technology's functionality (i.e., providing features needed to complete a task), its helpfulness (i.e., help functions will provide necessary advice), and its reliability (i.e., technology will consistently operate properly) (McKnight et al. 2011;Thatcher et al. 2010).”

“The trust literature suggests a causal ordering among trust constructs, such that an individual's general trusting beliefs in people or technology directly influences institutionbased trust and indirectly shapes trust in a specific person or technology (McKnight et al. 2011;McKnight and Chervany 2001).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
