چکیده

In this paper we present effects of reciprocal exchanges on trust and autonomy of peer level agents. We present models of trust and autonomy and show changes to autonomy and trust in an abstract problem domain. As social exchanges increase, average agent autonomy is increased. Autonomy and trust are more susceptible to certain number of social ties among agents mirroring the principle of peak performance.

Transactive Memory and Trust Networks in Computer-Supported Teams

The development of transactive memory facilitated by trust relationships and social exchanges is of emerging importance in distributed environments characterized by a lack of rich social presence. Situated at the nexus of research on computer-supported teams, this study examined the effects of trust networks and social presence on transactive memory. The results indicated that dense trust netwo...

Fragile and Resilient Trust: Risk and Uncertainty in Negotiated and Reciprocal Exchange*

Both experimental and ethnographic studies show that reciprocal exchanges (in which actors unilaterally provide benefits to each other without formal agreements) produce stronger trust than negotiated exchanges secured by binding agreements. We develop the theoretical role of risk and uncertainty as causal mechanisms that potentially explain these results, and then test their effects in two lab...

Social agents are affected by many social attributes such as benevolence, social exchanges, power, and norms. We present cognitively inspired working models of trust and auto...

Forthcoming American Journal of Sociology Swift Neighbors and Persistent Strangers: A Cross-Cultural Investigation of Trust and Reciprocity in Social Exchange^

In this research we explore anonymous, one-shot exchanges among “neighbors” and among “strangers” in four countries. Specifically, we compare levels of trust and reciprocity in a direct-reciprocal (dyadic) exchange, with those in network generalized exchanges among experimentally manipulated groups’ members (neighbors) or random experimental participants (strangers). We demonstrate that levels ...

Social Networks and Transactive Memory in Human-Computer Interaction

This study investigates the phenomenon of transactive memory by examining trust networks and social presence in human-computer interaction. Traditional theories suggest that transactive memory can be developed by structural mechanisms that increase knowledge specialization and task coordination, but more recent research also suggests that it can be enhanced through social network mechanisms and...
