| Description | Trust can be seen as the cornerstone of reciprocity, sharing and cooperation. Although the foundations of trust are probably set in early childhood, its forming in adolescence is of great importance as well. In this paper we explore the concept of trust in 15 to 21-year-old adolescents. We report the results of two surveys. In the first one, 959 adolescents from Czech Republic, Slovakia, Scotland and France gave one association related to trust. In the second one, 490 Czech adolescents completed the unfinished sentence “Trust is....”. Results confirm the importance of trust and suggest two main concepts: emotion-based trust as a part of the relationship and cognitive trust based on an agreement. |
