Abstract: Trust is the willingness of a party to be actions of another party based on the positive expectation. Trust in online shopping includes disposition to trust, institution-based trust, trusting beliefs (trust in e-vendor) and trusting intentions. Personal experiences, personality and cognition influence disposition to trust. Security construction of Internet and service of the third-party institution influence institution-based trust.

The future researches may focus on the conception of trust in online shopping, the development of trust, cultural effect in trust and regaining trust after negative events.
