“…Three studies provide support for this premise (Glanville & Andersson, 2013;Glanville & Paxton, 2007;Freitag & Traunmüller, 2009). More generally, a wealth of studies show a positive relationship between participation in voluntary associations and trust, both in single country studies (e.g., Brehm & Rahn, 1997;Paxton, 2007;Siisiäinen & Kankainen, 2014;Wollebaek & Selle, 2002) as well as in cross-country analyses (Anheier & Kendall, 2002;Delhey & Newton, 2003;Stolle, 1998;Sønderskov, 2011a). Using data from the European Values Study 2000 in 21 countries in Europe plus the United States, Anheier and Kendall (2002, p. 344) report "almost a linear relationship between increases in membership and the likelihood of trusting people."…”

This chapter reviews the literature on the causes of individuals’ generalized social trust (trust in unknown others) from a wide range of social science disciplines. The chapter structures the review around two broad classes of explanations: dispositional explanations (trust as a disposition) and experiential explanations (trust as a response to individual experiences). Both have been examined in a number of related lines of research, which are reviewed and critically discussed in the chapter. Specific attention is paid to the potential for drawing causal inference—based on the nature of the data employed, and the methods used—in the studies reviewed.

This chapter reviews the literature on the causes of individuals' generalized social trust (trust in unknown others) from a wide-range of social science disciplines. We structure the review around two broad classes of explanations: dispositional explanations (trust as a disposition) and experiential explanations (trust as a response to individual experiences). Specific attention is paid to the potential for drawing causal inferences - based on quality of data, and the methods used - in the studies reviewed.

“…Since an action requires interaction with others, this strand focuses on socialization as the most important mechanism of social trust formation. 11 As such, the processes of the creation and maintenance of trust are often reduced to assessing the trustworthiness of others. Trust is expected to emerge from judging others as trustworthy people 12 or assessing the probability of being deceived as generally low.…”

While social trust is seen as an essential factor in political, economic, and social progress in the world, its country-specific mode of formation remains underresearched. Considering Ukraine as a primary subject of analysis, this study attempts to define significant predictors that contribute to or undermine trust levels in the country. Special attention is paid to the impact of Ukraine’s conflict with Russia on the patterns of building social trust among Ukrainians. The analysis applies a multilevel model to World Values Survey (WVS) data from the pre-war and in-war periods (2011 and 2020). The findings of the study argue that the emergence of social trust is primarily influenced by political conditions in Ukraine and closely linked by Ukrainians to the issue of liberal democracy.
