This study examines the stability of trust and explores whether it differs across men and women using a panel dataset. Data were first collected in 2008 and later in 2019, from 1056 male and 1113 female respondents in the Netherlands. The analysis results suggest that trust is significantly correlated over time, irrespective of gender. Similarly, the subgroup analysis restricted to respondents with low levels of trust in 2008 showed a significant correlation between trust measured in 2008 and that measured in 2019. Further, this study analyzes whether the correlation decays with time by comparing the correlation between trust in 2008 and 2019 with the correlation between trust in 2008 and 2013. The analysis reveals a significant decay in the correlation with time, and this decay is driven by men. A closer look shows that older men (with age ≥ median value) primarily caused this decay in correlation. These findings provide evidence of the interaction between gender and the stability of trust.

这项研究使用面板数据集检验了信任的稳定性，并探讨了男性和女性之间的信任是否存在差异。数据分别于 2008 年和 2019 年首次收集，收集对象为荷兰 1056 名男性和 1113 名女性受访者。分析结果表明，无论性别如何，信任随着时间的推移显着相关。同样，仅限于 2008 年信任度较低的受访者的亚组分析显示，2008 年测量的信任度与 2019 年测量的信任度之间存在显着相关性。此外，本研究通过比较 2008 年和 2019 年的信任度之间的相关性，分析了相关性是否随时间衰减。 2019 年与 2008 年和 2013 年信任度之间的相关性。分析显示，相关性随时间显着衰减，而这种衰减是由男性驱动的。仔细观察发现，老年男性（年龄≥中值）主要导致了这种相关性的衰减。这些发现提供了性别与信任稳定性之间相互作用的证据。
