The scholar aims to enhance the nursing knowledge base on trust through an integrative, cross-disciplinary literature review. The phenomenon of trust has been examined across several disciplines but has not yet been integrated for a comprehensive understanding. The scholar synthesizes literature from nursing, business, psychology, philosophy, law, medicine, and social work. Three themes emerge: (a) trust prompts authentic relationships; (b) trust fosters confidence; and (c) trust engenders vulnerability.
