Abstract

The purposes of this article are to clarify which factor, citizens' or governmental, affects the trust in civil service in Japan and to verify the hypothesis that the trust in civil service is determined by the governmental performance / the citizens' expectation for governmental role. In order to achieve these purposes, I used the Japanese data of the World Values Survey 2005 and executed ordered probit regression analysis. As a result, the following facts are found. First, the governmental factor affects than the citizens' ones. Especially, the governmental performance such as the degree of respect for human rights and the degree of democratic government in Japan affects most of all factors. Second, the performance / expectation hypothesis could not be verified. The variable we chose from the World Values Survey 2005 as Japanese citizens' expectation for governmental role was supposed to show only aspiration like citizens' dream, not real expectation. In any way, we could clarify the important governmental factor affecting the trust in civil service in Japan.
