Predictors of Interpersonal Trust in Virtual Distributed Teams

Abstract

Human trust in virtual distributed teams plays a critical role in performing missions/tasks given the limited resources. This study attempted to review the available literature with regards to the human interpersonal trust characteristics to identify important traits or factors when temporary mission oriented teams must be assembled. Based on the review of the theories, a theory of human trust, trust continuum/grid/cube, was developed and discussed in this study. Finally, an experimental framework to test the proposed theory was developed, however the experiment was not conducted due to the time limitation.
