This essay recognizes and criticizes a commonly held assumption that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) functions as a ?savings account of Trust? between corporations and consumers.

In this paper I have conducted an analysis to critically examine survey questionnaire forms used in political research to measure Trust and disTrust. During the first step of the analysis I aimed to identify how the concepts where used in the forms. The second step involved examining if it was possible to relate the questions and items to five theoretical assumptions based on theories of Trust (and disTrust). The third step was to examine the quality of the forms, in relation to survey and questionnaire designs.The results of the analysis showed that the institutes that conduct the studies tended to use similar questions to measure Trust. Some of the forms that where analyzed had very many questions, which could lead to exhaustion for those participating in studies.

    The purpose of this essay is to examine Trust, or lack of Trust, in the social services. Previous research considering this topic is limited, which, in our point of view, implies the need of further studies.

The statements were designed using a five level Likert-scale which required the respondent to rate their level of agreement. The questionnaire was published on five webcommunities directed to parents.
