“…Society emphasizes the importance of truth (Sanney et al, 2020) and logic (Kornberger et al, 2019) for forming conclusions—suggesting facts should be convincing evidence for why opponents' hold their beliefs. Supporting this, peoples' intuitions are that sharing facts bolsters opponent claims and builds respect across political divides (Kubin et al, 2021).…”

The media is increasingly blamed for inflaming political animosity, but it may also bridge partisan divides-with the right strategies. Past research highlights the outgroup experience effect: sharing personal experiences (and not facts) helps to reduce partisan animosity.However, sharing facts is a pillar of good journalism, and is essential for mediated political communication. Across 4 studies in two countries, we show that journalists, and citizens on social media sites, can share facts about contentious political issues (gun and climate policy), while simultaneously increasing tolerance and reducing dehumanization of political opponents. We extend the outgroup experience effect by introducing factual content alongside personal experiences of political adversaries (i.e., a combination approach). These effects are replicated in both the United States and Germany though in Germany the personal experience intervention is only beneficial for people with more extreme attitudes.

“…Our finding that political legitimacy factors like trust in government institutions and satisfaction with democracy significantly influence tax evasion aligns with prior research. For example, studies in Latin America have similarly concluded that a lack of trust in political institutions and dissatisfaction with regime performance undermine tax morale (Carrillo et al, 2017 andSanney et al, 2020). The fiscal exchange model posits that citizens view tax payment as an exchange for state services and accountability, so when political institutions are perceived as ineffective or untrustworthy, citizens feel less obligated to pay taxes (Moore, 2004).…”

Tax non-compliance and its consequences have become a subject of increasing interest in academic literature and economic forums worldwide. While most studies on this issue focus on developed countries, there is a growing trend to explore understudied developing countries. To fill this gap, we investigated tax evasion drivers in eight Southern African Development Community (SADC) countries, using the round 7 Afrobarometer survey data conducted in 2019-2020. The survey's comprehensive coverage of economic, political, and sociological questions made it one of the most extensive surveys on the continent. We used logistic regression and Empirical Bayesian estimation and found that political legitimacy significantly influences tax evasion behavior in the SADC region. Individuals residing within the SADC are more likely to engage in tax evasion activities when they perceive a lack of access to fundamental services provided by their governments or harbor doubts about the legitimacy of political institutions. Therefore, policymakers in SADC member states should prioritize reviewing and evaluating economic policies, the performance and efficiency of political institutions, and more inclusive governance. We suggest that a strong and legitimate political framework, coupled with effective service delivery, can contribute to reducing tax evasion rates and enhancing public welfare outcomes. Institutional reforms, increased transparency, accountability, and a more inclusive governance system are necessary for fostering a culture of compliance and trust, leading to improved revenue collection.

Trust is critical to the success of health care. We witness a diversification of trust constructs which is due to the context specificity of trust and the popularity of trust in marketing, public, and political debate. This diverse use of trust leads to confusion. To contribute to the dissolution of this confusion, I propose that the essence of trust follows Tell the truth and let me choose—I might trust you. Inferring from empirical and theoretical work, I argue that the conceptual framework of trust is comprised of: communication, truthful information, autonomy, alternatives, and no guarantee. This oversimplification aims to stimulate a debate about the common denominator of existing conceptual frameworks of trust in health care. By refining and agreeing on the core of trust in health care, we will be able to improve debate, improve comparability among trust studies, and improve understandability of policy recommendations to foster trust in health care.
