Description
Summary:Trust in the context of e-negotiation is a multifaceted cognition about various trustees, including the e-negotiation website, the e-negotiation service provider, the other negotiator, and the neutral third party (if it exists). This set of trust cognitions is important because it can facilitate the adoption of e-negotiation services. As such, this manuscript presents a review of relevant trust-related literature streams, and integrates them into two models: (1) trust relations in e-negotiations, and (2) potential effects of trust assessments on the adoption of e-negotiation services. The trust relations model identifies and distinguishes between various facets of trust that are relevant in e-negotiations. This model facilitates a clear conceptualization and communication of trust issues in e-negotiation research. The trust effects model conceptualizes the roles of the different trust facets in predicting e-negotiation adoption behavior. Overall, these theory-based models advance the field and can serve as the basis for future investigations of trust in e-negotiations.
