The Six Buckets of Trust®

Overview

TrustLogic® is grounded in morphological psychology, developed through extensive psychological research by Professor Wilhelm Salber. This framework focuses on the dynamics of decision-making and trust. Insights come from over 100 in-depth interviews led by psychologists Barbara Grohsgart and Stefan Grafe. TrustLogic® introduces six distinct categories—The Six Buckets of Trust®—representing the primary reasons individuals trust organizations, products, or people:

  1. Stability Trust
  2. Development Trust
  3. Relationship Trust
  4. Benefit Trust
  5. Vision Trust
  6. Competence Trust
