Trust in the Australian Defence Force from the perspective of Australian military families

Those who love and marry serving members are significantly impacted by their service. Despite the critical role partners play in military capability, research about partners is limited. This seminar will provide an overview of the findings of a research project which used qualitative interviews and focus groups to investigate the interactions of Australian Defence Force (ADF) partners on social media. 

Additional Information

This seminar focuses on one of the major findings of this study related to trust. Concepts of trust were a strong theme in the study and this seminar explores the trust relationship between partners and the ADF, outlining why trust is critically important and how evidence of the trust relationship is seen on social media. This seminar contributes to current discussions on the current perception of the ADF in the non-Defence community.
