Abstract

Relationships and social interactions take up a large part of a person’s life and can be easy or difficult for people to maintain when trust is implemented. Many people are left wondering who is trustworthy or how to build a relationship involving trust. Creating a safe environment in therapy is vital between therapist and client. Humans have unique characteristics that are difficult to replicate, which include being able to observe and decipher facial expressions. There was evidence found that supported the relationship between the unique neurochemical, oxytocin, and the relationship between cooperation and trust. The dramatic surge in internet usage can put many interpersonal skills to the test, considering body language is hidden. Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used as technology advances, including within medical settings. AI is new enough that there is still hesitation for people to give their trust, possibly for good reason. The research found support for an over-reliance on AI technology within a medical setting, suggesting that AI may not be beneficial in every situation. Therapists have a significant task of teaching people how to trust responsibly. Human social lives are based on trust, beginning in childhood, and continuing throughout adulthood.
