The results show that there is generally a low level of trust in the authority and that it is possible to find a certain connection between trust and the media as a source of information. The results also indicate that a larger proportion of people doubt Swedish legislation rather than the goodwill of social workers. The study is not statistically significant, which is why conclusions are only based on the respondents who participated in the study. (Less)
