Social Optimization: Developing and maintaining mutually beneficial and effective relationships Foundations of Social Theory by James S. Coleman . Coleman offers a four-part definition: Placement of trust allows actions that otherwise are not possible (i.e. trust allows actions to be conducted based on incomplete information on the case in hand). The person in whom trust is placed (trustee) is trustworthy, then the trustor will be better off than if he or she had not trusted. Conversely, if the trustee is not trustworthy, then the trustor will be worse off than if he or she had not trusted (this is reminiscent of a classical prisoner's dilemma ). Trust is an action that involves a voluntary transfer of resources (physical, financial, intellectual, or temporal) from the truster to the trustee with no real commitment from the trustee (again prisoner's dilemma). A time lag exists between the extension of trust and the result of the trusting behavior.
Authenticity refers to the truthfulness of origins, attributions, commitments, sincerity, devotion, and intentions. Authenticity Trust Dependability is a value showing the reliability of a person to others because of his/her integrity, truthfulness, and trustfulness, traits that can encourage someone to depend on him/her. Trust is a relationship of reliance. Trust is a prediction of reliance on an action, based on what a party knows about the other party. -Wikipedia
