원자력 신뢰의 다차원성 측정

초록

Though trust is a critical determinant of acceptance of nuclear power stations, the concept of trust in nuclear energy has not been examined precisely and comprehensively. This study attempted to empirically assess the construct validity of measures and factor structures of trust in nuclear energy. It conducted confirmatory factor analysis to examine the multi-dimensionality of trust in nuclear energy by comparing two-factor and three-factor models. The results showed that three-factor structure had a better fit than two-factor structure. This study made an important theoretical contribution to the study of trust and provided important implications for nuclear energy policy.
