Discover highlight 2017 and outlook for 2018.

2017 CHAIR HIGHLIGHTS

The purpose of the Chair for Public Trust in Health is to examine trust at both the organizational and institutional level. We explore how the public at large develops trust over time by looking at the construction, degradation, and repair of trust involving multiple audiences.

The main focus of research conducted by the Chair is on the health field, a societal domain in which the issue of public trust is of particular importance. In doing so, the Chair brings together researchers from organization studies, sociology, and social history to gain a deeper understanding of how organizations are perceived as trustworthy in a social system marked by multiple audiences, rules, norms, and values.
