    Abstract

    This paper conceptually develops a comprehensive model of trust that classifies
    antecedents of trust in information systems (IS) into (a) purely human-based, (b) purely ITbased,
    and (c) a combination of both. The research model is in the context of on-line
    knowledge sharing in virtual communities of practice (VCoP) which may involve various
    numbers of participants (from a few to a few thousands) and technologies. Implications of
    trust and its antecedents for IS/IT professionals are presented and discussed.
