“…In this paper, we examined three directions of home-school trust referents namely, trust from home, trust from school, and trust within home and school. Trust from home refers to the trust extended by parents and students toward teachers and the school (organization), that is, parent's trust in teachers or schools (Oghuvbu, 2008;Forsyth et al, 2011;Santiago et al, 2016;Titrek, 2016) and student trust in teachers or school (Romero, 2015).…”

“…The authors of those studies operationalize trust based on the context of the particular study. For example, trust was measured as the degree of parental involvement (Eng et al, 2014), the quality of interaction between parents and teachers (Oghuvbu, 2008), and parental monitoring and involvement (Bower et al, 2011). As shown in Supplementary Table 2, we specifically placed these scales in the category "other" to highlight the new perspectives with which trust has been examined.…”

“…Some newly constructed scales underwent psychometric properties test. For example, Oghuvbu (2008) piloted the scale to a sample of 300 participants to measure the internal consistency, reliability, and validity before administering it. Janssen et al ( 2012) also tested their new scale for internal consistency, reliability, and homogeneity.…”

Conceptualization and Measurement of Trust in Home–School Contexts: A Scoping Review

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Objective and Method: This review unravels the complexity of trust in home–school contexts across the globe by drawing on 79 peer-reviewed quantitative empirical studies spanning over two decades (2000–2020). The goal is to refocus attention on how trust has been defined and operationalized in recent scholarship.Findings: The findings reveal four essential pillars in the conceptualization of trust: the trustor’s propensity to trust, shared goals, the trustor–trustee relationship, and the trustee’s trustworthiness. However, the operationalization of trust in existing measures does not fully capture these essential pillars, as it is mainly based on trustee characteristics of benevolence, reliability, openness, competence, and honesty rather than on the trustor’s actual trust behavior.Conclusion: Most “trust studies” are essentially measuring trustworthiness and not the purported trust. Therefore, a shift in the conceptualization and measurement of trust is proposed. The review contributes to the understanding and assessment of home–school and workplace relationships.
