“…Similarly, a small but growing body of literature has examined the impact of COVID-19 decision-making on public trust. For example, Fazio et al (2021) found that COVID-19 lockdown policies were adjusted to prevent diminished trust and negative public perception that the government's actions were too “extreme.” In their study of French and Italian participants, Lalot et al (2022) found that either trust in the government or concern about the pandemic was necessary to sustain compliance with COVID-19–related policies. However, the absence of both factors significantly reduces overall compliance.…”

Given that trust in government is a critical feature of a well-functioning democracy, research into its determinants has long been a priority among public opinion scholars. The consensus in the literature is that short-term factors drive the ebbs and flows of public trust, and a climate of mistrust has significant consequences on the government's ability to deliver on policies and enforce the law. Despite decades of extensive research on public trust, changing circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic support the need to investigate the factors shaping trust in this distinct period. This article, using data from the American National Election Study, explores how economic, social, and political anxieties pervasive throughout the pandemic influence trust in the United States government. Findings from ordered logistic regression analyses indicate that public trust in government is associated with views of the government's COVID-19 response, beliefs about the state of the country and government corruption, economic anxieties, and concerns about election fraud and the status of American democracy. Findings also reveal that sentiments toward institutions—including the police and the Center for Disease Control—contribute to variability in public trust. The implications of these findings for criminal justice research and policy are also considered.

“…For example, Fazio et al. ( 2021 ) find that approval of the Italian government's COVID management was negatively correlated with individuals' desired penalties for lockdown violations. In early April 2020, a survey of over 7000 Europeans found that the policies that respondents most approved of were the fining of quarantine violations, the banning of public gatherings, and border closures; the policies respondents most opposed were the suspension of public transportation, the banning of medical exports, the use of mobile phone data for tracking, and curfews (Sabat et al., 2020 ).…”

We study the COVID‐19 pandemic's effect on government and market attitudes using within‐subject comparisons of survey responses elicited before and after the onset of the pandemic. We find that participants develop significantly less favorable opinions toward government and markets; and that participants increase support for bigger government significantly and for redistribution, in general, marginally significantly. There is no evidence this leads to an increase in support for specific redistributive policies, nor for government to play a larger role in specific functions. Our results echo the stubbornness of American preferences for redistribution and suggest the presence of a principle‐implementation gap.

“…Despite this progress, AD/ADRD research is still constrained by a lack of measure development and testing for some outcomes prioritized by PLWD and caregivers. 28 Critical gaps in outcome measurement for this population include (1) a deficiency-focused approach, with focus on impairment as opposed to measures capturing strengths, adaptations, resilience, and well-being; (2) insufficient stakeholder input to define and prioritize outcome domains across the stages of AD/ADRD; and (3) limited validation and language translation for use with minority racial or ethnic populations who may have a different lived experience of AD/ADRD.
