Abstract： Academics have different opinions regarding the sex difference in trust level. One group of researchers holds the view of sex differences in trust levels, where risk preference theory supports the view that men have a higher level of trust, and the advantages over the women in the prosocial field provide support for women to have a higher level of trust. However, another group of scholars believe that there is no sex difference in trust level, which is based on the gender similarities hypothesis. Although the views of the two groups and their theoretical foundations have been supported to a certain extent; however, they need to be comprehensively analyzed and clarified about their rationality from the perspectives of research paradigms and cultural differences between the East and the West. Future research use trust measurement methods need to be more rationally, then clarify the sex characteristics of trust in the dynamic process of change, and deepen the research on the neurophysiological mechanism of the trust difference between the sexes, thus fundamentally better reveal the issue of sex differences in trust levels.

Abstract： Trust games were widely used as a classic paradigm of trust measurement. However, the accuracy of the results of the trust game had been questioned by scholars in the field all the time, making precise trust measurement an important topic for exploration. The controversy mainly includes the following two aspects. On the one hand, the appropriateness of the trust game paradigm has yet to be verified. The controversy over paradigm changes further reveals that social preferences and risk preferences might have an impact on the level of investment trust, thereby reducing the internal validity of the trust game. On the other hand, the correlation between the level of the investment trust in trust games and the trust measured by the survey is very low, which can be explained by differences in attitudes and behaviours, differences in measurement types, and the limitations of trust measured by the survey and trust game. Although trust game face with some controversy, in general, it is still a suitable method for trust measuring. Future research should focus on the following points: Verifying the scientificity of the changes in the paradigm of trust game; Clarifying the low correlation between trust game and trust measured by survey; Expanding the measurement dimensions of trust game; Improving the ecological validity of trust game.

Abstract：
[Objective]: To revise the Feminist Identity Development Scale(FIDS) and examine the reliability and validity in Chinese female college students. [Methods]Take the Chinese version of FIDS, the Self-Esteem Scale and the hostile sexism subscale of Ambivalent Sexism Inventory to make a survey among 1657 female college students, then item analysis, reliability analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and criteria validity test were completed. [Results] The revised Chinese version of FIDS had a total of 27 items, which retained five subscales: Passive Acceptance(5 items), Revelation(5 items), Embeddedness-Emanation(4 items), Synthesis(5 items) and Active Commitment(8 items), and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 56.18%. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the five-factor model fitted well(χ 2/df=2.99, IFI=0.92, CFI=0.92, GFI=0.92, TLI=0.91, RMSEA=0.05). The Cronbach’s α of the Chinese version of FIDS ranged from 0.71 to 0.89, and the split-half reliability ranged from 0.75 to 0.90. [Conclusion]The revised Chinese version of FIDS has good reliability and validity among Chinese female college students, which is an effective tool for measuring the level of feminist identity development.
