"Do you know, when I was a little tad and couldn't sleep at night with the pain, I used to make believe I was a 'truster' and say over to myself all the nice, comforting things I wished they would say.    From Wordnik.com.  [The Primrose Ring] Reference

This is an enormous difference to an honest truster.    From Wordnik.com.  [Does Hansen's Error "Matter"? « Climate Audit] Reference

However, the truster need not have access to, or be aware of the reliability of, such reasons.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

An automatic consequence is that the truster has no way of distinguishing good advice from bad.    From Wordnik.com.  [The God Delusion]

Such reasons, or factors, may influence the truster, even though s/he could not state what they are.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

This should make an enormous difference to a truster, as it is clear confirmation that his trust was misplaced.    From Wordnik.com.  [Does Hansen's Error "Matter"? « Climate Audit] Reference

But this person may also have to be committed in a certain way or for a certain reason (e.g. s/he cares about the truster).    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

Alternatively, the truster in a relationship can introduce the constraints by requiring that the trustee sign a contract, for example.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

According to it, a trustee who is actually trustworthy will act out of goodwill toward the truster, to what or to whom the trustee is entrusted with or both.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

The theory also implies that the reasons for trusting well (i.e., in a justified way) are accessible to the truster, at some point or another, which may be false.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

The truster therefore cannot assume, while trusting, that the trustee will do what s/he is trusted to do because the trustee has no legitimate choice in the matter.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

But a further condition, which is controversial, is that the truster believes or is optimistic that, in general, the trustee has a certain kind of motive for acting.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

Philosophers who agree that trust can be rational in either truth - or end-directed ways tend to disagree about the degree to which reasons that confer rationality must be accessible to the truster.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

Perhaps trustworthiness is instead a disposition to respond to trust in appropriate ways, given “who one is in relation” to the truster and given other virtues that one possesses or ought to possess.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

If trust were only justified when the truster could produce legitimate reasons for why the trustee is trustworthy, then cooperation with justified trust would not be a whole lot easier than cooperation without it.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

And because these goods may benefit the truster, the trustee, or society in general, they are therefore social as well as individual goods, where the most relevant individuals tend to be parties to the trust relationship.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

The truster might try to reduce this risk by monitoring or imposing certain constraints on the behavior of the trustee; but, after a certain threshold perhaps, the more monitoring and constraining s/he does, the less s/he trusts that person.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

To illustrate how each of these dimensions is relevant, note first that trust is only warranted (in the sense of being plausible) when the truster is willing to accept the conditions that accompany the act of trusting (e.g., the assumption of a degree of risk).    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

An alternative to the social contract view is a view according to which trustworthy people are motivated by their own interest to maintain the relationship they have with the truster, which in turn encourages them to encapsulate the interests of that person in their own interests.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference

My point here is that being motivated by a desire to maintain a relationship (the central motivation of a trustworthy person on the encapsulated interests view) may not require one to adopt all of the interests of the truster that would actually make one trustworthy to that person.    From Wordnik.com.  [Trust] Reference
