“…Research presented here consists of two studies that were conducted in accordance with the premises of grounded theory—a method used for inductive generation of hypotheses from empirical data (Glaser, 1998, 2001; Glaser & Strauss, 1967; Strauss & Corbin, 1998). Grounded theory has been successfully applied in a variety of fields, including organizational studies, psychology, education, evaluation research, women’s studies, and nursing (see, e.g., Charmaz, 1990; Chenitz & Swanson, 1986; Collins, 2001; Guba & Lincoln, 1989; Hutchinson, 1992; Quintanilla, Frazier Cano, & Ivy, 2004; Turner, 1981). Charmaz (2001) writes that a major contribution of grounded theory methods is that “they provide rigorous procedures for researchers to check, refine, and develop their ideas and intuitions about the data” (p. 245).…”

Communication has frequently received attention in studies on trust. One question that has remained unanswered is, How is organizational trust communicated? Consistent with the view of organizations as discursive entities, research presented here examines discursive qualities of trust and attempts to provide an understanding of the manner in which organizational trust is communicated. Research presented in this article includes the results of two studies conducted in two different parts of the country: a large metropolitan area in the southeastern United States and a regional center in the south. Findings reveal that against the background of a continuous discursive and interactional flow, trust is communicated as a speech act characterized by the world-to-words direction of fit. Findings have implications for both theory and practice.
