6 Executive Summary With an interest in learning more about those individuals and organizations in which adults place their trust and on behalf of the AARP Bulletin, in January 2013, AARP Research & Strategic Analysis fielded a short telephone survey among a nationally representative sample of 1,022 individuals ages 18 and older. Key Findings As one might expect, adults of all ages place more trust in individuals closest to them their spouse (98% having a great deal or some trust), their best friend (94%), and their own doctor (93%). Conversely, adults of all ages have the least trust in those more distant from them Corporate CEOs (45%), strangers (35%), and used car salespersons (34%). Just under half (48%) of those taking the survey reported having a spouse and said they have a great deal (92%) or some trust (6%) in their spouse (98%). High levels of trust (a great deal or somewhat) were also reported for local police (88%), neighbors (84%), and one s banker (82%). The President received a trust score of 66%, which is about the same level of job approval reported in other surveys fielded in late January There are some minor, but significant differences by age groups (18 49 vs. 50+). For example, just over six in ten (63%) adults age 18 to 49 report they trust their member of Congress, compared to just over half (56%) of those 50 or older who say they trust their member of Congress. Similarly, there are some minor, but significant differences by gender (men vs. women). For example, women reported higher levels of trust in the President (72%) than did men (62%). Americans Trust in Organizations and Individuals: An AARP Bulletin Survey 1
7 Conclusions According to our results, adults of all ages trust most those persons and groups they are closest to and are most familiar to them. Conversely, those who are at a greatest distance from them engender the least amount of trust. At this level of abstraction the results fit nicely with social distance theory which would predict this outcome. In contrast, however, those groups garnering mid levels of trust do not necessarily fit a clear social distance pattern. That is, local police and personal bankers score significantly higher than one s in laws and teachers. There are minor detectable differences in ratings by age groups (18 49 and 50+) that suggest trust levels may be moderated by experience older individuals may have more experience with particular individuals and organizations leading to the types of age differences we observed. Also, there are minor detectable differences in ratings by gender. However, there is no discernable pattern of responses across organizations and individuals by gender.

8 Background In January 2013, on behalf of the AARP Bulletin, AARP Research & Strategic Analysis contracted with Social Science Research Solutions (SSRS) to field a short telephone survey among a nationally representative sample of adults ages 18 and older to learn more about the trust adults place in individuals and organizations 1,2. Respondents were read a list of organizations and individuals and for each item, they were asked to what extent they trusted the organization or individual. Detailed Findings 3 High Levels of Trust (75% or more report a great deal of trust or trust somewhat) When asked to what extent they trusted an organization or individual, respondents said they placed a high level of trust (a great deal or some) in nine organizations or individuals: Spouse (98%) Best friend (93%) Doctor (91%) Local police (88%) Neighbors (84%) Banker (82%) Judges (80%) Mother or Father in law (78%) Religious leaders (77%) Moderate Levels of Trust 1 The survey was fielded from January 23 to January 27, At the conclusion of the fielding period, responses had been received from 1,022 adults ages 18 and older. The sampling error is +/ 3.07 percentage points at the 95% confidence level. This means that in 95 out of 100 samples of this size, the results would fall in a range of no more than three percentage points of what would have been obtained if every person age 18 or older had been surveyed. 2 Throughout the report, results are presented using weighted data figures. 3 Respondents in this study are aged 18 and older, with just over four in ten (41%) between the ages of 18 and 49 and almost six in ten (59%) ages 50 and older. Slightly more than half are women (53%) and slightly less than half are men (47%). Just over a third (34%) have household incomes of less than $30,000 per year, while nearly onefifth (17%) have household incomes of $30,000 $49,999 per year. Almost four in 10 (37%) of respondents reported an annual household income of $50,000 or more, with one quarter (25%) reporting an annual household income of $75,000 or more.

9 Additionally, they noted moderate levels of trust (between 60% 75% a great deal or somewhat) in five organizations or individuals: Local TV reporters (69%) Mayor (68%) The President (67%) Lawyer (66%) Child s or Grandchild s teachers (65%) Low Levels of Trust Finally, they reported lower levels of trust (less than 60%) in the remaining six organizations or individuals they were asked about: Newspaper reporters (60%) Your member of Congress (60%) Labor unions (53%) Corporate CEOs (44%) Strangers (32%) Used car salespersons (32%) Figure 1 (on the following page) summarizes the rank ordering from high to low of respondents levels of trust in organizations and individuals: Americans Trust in Organizations and Individuals: An AARP Bulletin Survey 4

11 Age Differences in Levels of Trust When examining levels of trust in organizations and individuals by the age groups and 50+, seven significant differences emerge (see Table 1 below). Table 1 Levels of Trust in Organizations and Individuals by Respondent Age (n=1,020)* Organization/Individual (n=577) (n=443) Spouse Best friend Doctor Local police Neighbors Banker Judges In laws Religious leader Local TV reporters Mayor The President Your lawyer Teachers Newspaper reporters Member of Congress Labor unions Corporate CEOs Strangers Used car salesperson *Bolded items represent significant differences at the.05 level. When compared to younger respondents, those age 50+ said they had higher levels of trust in their neighbors (89% vs. 81%) and in their bankers (87% vs. 78%). Younger respondents said they had higher levels of trust in judges (84% vs. 74%), their in laws (90% vs. 67%), the President (70% vs. 63%), their member of Congress (63% vs. 56%), and labor unions (58% vs. 46%). These findings suggest trust levels may be moderated by experience older individuals may have more experience with particular individuals/organizations than do younger individuals leading to the types of age differences observed here. Americans Trust in Organizations and Individuals: An AARP Bulletin Survey 6
12 Gender Differences in Levels of Trust When examining levels of trust in organizations and individuals by gender (men and women), four significant differences emerge (see Table 2 below). Table 2 Levels of Trust in Organizations and Individuals by Respondent Gender (n=1,022)* Organization/Individual Male Female (n=493) (n=529) Spouse Best friend Doctor Local police Neighbors Banker Judges In laws Religious leader Local TV reporters Mayor The President Your lawyer Teachers Newspaper reporters Member of Congress Labor unions Corporate CEOs Strangers Used car salesperson *Bolded items represent significant differences at the.05 level. When compared to male respondents, women said they had higher levels of trust in local TV reporters (73% vs. 65%), The President (72% vs. 62%), and their member of Congress (65% vs. 55%). In contrast, men have higher levels of trust in strangers (38% vs. 27%) than do women. While there are minor detectable differences in ratings by gender, there is no discernable pattern of responses across organizations and individuals by gender, which is consistent with the gender differences literature.

Similarly, there are minor, but measurable differences in trust ratings by gender, but no systematic pattern of differences across organizations and individuals.
