Handbook of Management Scales/Supervisee trust

Supervisee trust (alpha = 0.88/0.87) Items My supervisor and I have a sharing relationship; we freely share our ideas, feelings, and hopes about the work we do. I can freely talk to him/her about difficulties I am having at work and know that he/she wants to listen. If I share my problems with my supervisor, I know he/she would respond constructively and caringly. We both would feel a sense of loss if we could no longer work together. I would have to say, my supervisor and I have made considerable emotional investments in our working relationship. Source Atuahene-Gima/Li (2002): When does trust matter?
