| Tiivistelmä: | Trust is of great interest in organizational research and the social sciences. It is argued here that any theory of trust ought to treat a set of observed empirical regularities as constraints. A constraint on a theory is either an assumption made in constructing the theory (e.g., we assume people have a tendency to be fair in their dealings with others) or an explanadum (e.g., we must explain the tendency people have to be fair in their dealings with others) for which the theory must account. |
