Dynamic influences of power on trust
Though much research has examined the trust development process, we know little about how changes in one’s power impact trust development. Building on relevant literatures, we propose that independent of one’s absolute power, trust increases (or decreases) as a function of how much power individuals gain (or lose) over time. We find support for our hypotheses in a multisource nine-month longitudinal study of individuals working in teams. Mediatio…
Advancing the scientific understanding of trust in the contexts of negotiations and repeated bargaining
More than half a century ago, Deutsch (1949, 1958) recognised the critical role that trust plays in negotiations and related forms of social interactions. Despite this very early recognition, and r
Knowing If You Are Trusted
In this study, we examine how accurately assessing how much one is trusted by others (i.e., meta-accuracy) affects trust development. We disentangle meta-accuracy, overestimation, and underestimation and investigate to what extent accurate, overly positive, or overly negative perceptions of trust contribute to trust development. Using longitudinal data of teams and two distinct analytical approaches to model accuracy, we find that meta-accuracy c…
Through whose eyes? The impact of identification on judgments of group status
This paper examines how group identification influences individuals’ judgments of the in-group’s status. Across four studies, using multiple manipulations of identification and measurements of group status, we demonstrate that increased identification with one’s group positively influences judgments of the in-group’s status. Moreover, we find confirmatory support for our prediction that this relationship is mediated by collective self-esteem. Imp…
The impact of positive mood on trust in interpersonal and intergroup interactions
Although the trust development literature has been characterized overwhelmingly by rationality-based models, the current research attempts to explain how affect can influence this process. To better understand how and why affect would influence trust development, 5 experiments were conducted to examine the effects of positive mood on people's tendencies to trust and distrust others. Consistent with theory, which argues that positive mood promotes…

Knowledge of partner's ability as a moderator of group motivation gains
O. Köhler (1926, 1927) found that less able performers tried harder as team members under conjunctive task demands (Köhler motivation gain effect) and that the greatest gain occurred with moderately discrepant coworker abilities (Köhler discrepancy effect). Recent investigations have reproduced Köhler's overall motivation gain but not the discrepancy effect. The present research examined whether workers' foreknowledge of task abilities--present i…
