Physical Challenge and the Development of Trust through Corporate Adventure Training. Research Update.

Priest, Simon

Journal of Experiential Education, v21 n1 p31-34 May-Jun 1998

To determine the role that physical aspects of corporate adventure training played in the acquisition of trust, 75 employees from a New Zealand computer company were assigned to one of two groups with varying levels of physical activity or to a control group. Trust was enhanced in the two experimental groups but more so in the more active group. (TD)
