摘要

As personality varies among individuals, even in the same situations, each person carries his or her own unique set of trust in government. The idiosyncrasies of person might have to do with trust in government. An increasing body of empirical work demonstrates the significance of personality in the public sector. However, relatively little is known about how personality affects trust in government. In particular, previous research has not appropriately paid attention on trust in different government institutions. To fill the void, this article aims to examine the impact of personality on trust in government by using the Chinese samples from the World Values Survey. Extraversion is negatively associated with trust in overall government. On the contrary, agreeableness is positively linked to it. Interestingly, neuroticism is positively associated with trust in court and police.
