Figure 1.

Relative comparison of mean ratings of dimensions by importance for creating and maintaining trust across stakeholder groups.

Note. The figure visualizes the relative importance ratings each stakeholder group placed on the five trust dimensions for creating and maintaining trust. Two dimensions, “mutually respectful and reciprocal relationships” and “authentic, effective, and transparent communication,” were rated highest across all groups. “Communication, credibility, and methodology to anticipate and resolve problems” was rated relatively higher by community members than health care providers and academic researchers.
