My go-to networks person is Bill McEvily at U Toronto but this looks a little different from what I understand of that work. Cool stuff!

Hope you enjoy it!!

I have some quibbles with the idea that authorities can estimate public trust and some pieces of the experiment but I buy finding a correlation between government support for harm reduction and trust in government. Not sure if it would survive explicit conservative pushback though.

More great #trustresearch!

Tyler told me to attend to treatment over outcome. Mayer introduced me vulnerability while Holling showed me balance. Ostrom asked me to trust the people, and Baldwin reminded me why we can’t always do that.

Lineage in academia is more than what school and who trained you. As a team sport, academic ideas necessarily come from somewhere.

My thought lineage is rooted heavily in Tyler and Mayer but also Holling, Ostrom, and Baldwin.

Unpacking them is a fun, intellectually reinvigorating mental break.

Thanks!

Big day :) #trustresearch

How can we rebuild trust in psychology, law, and institutions? Join us for the Friday Plenary, where Drs. Fettig, Hamm, Perillo, and Neal will discuss the erosion of public confidence in government and legal systems and ways to restore faith in justice. #TrustInJustice #PsychologyAndLaw #apls2025

I’ll be there!

Fun story on some recently published work coming out of the #TRUSSTLab.

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to shine the spotlight on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research.

I was hoping more people would ask to be added :/

Job negotiation wishlist:

1) Please don't make me use Outlook

2) Please don't make me use Teams

Absolutely fair, but the paper draws attention to increases in trust in science on the left so my comment was aimed there.

(I neglected to include the title in my original post—very important context that I dropped…)

Hah! I thought that the article title would post. Important context for my musing here. :)

Rapidly diverging public trust in science in the United States.

It’s just my musing. They find the levels of trust diverge, in part, because liberal trust in science is increasing. It could be that science is more trustworthy, but I read it as a motivated response of reporting higher trust because it is under threat.

Interesting new piece on #trustinscience at PUS.

The authors argue that existing theory falls flat in explaining this and it left me wondering if this is—on average—an individual-level motivated trust/threat response for liberals as well as conservatives.

Schulz finds that, in response to the pandemic, pro-incumbent partisans are more motivated to offer their trust.

Subsequent declines trust however were equally explained by increased social (not individual) vulnerability across parties.

New TRUSST Lab Paper Drop Day

If trust is a willingness to accept vulnerability, it’s important to know what people feel vulnerable to. In multilevel institutions like #highred, we suggest that a place to start is capturing and cataloguing experienced harm.
