Abstract

This study examines the effect of public administration transparency on public trust in Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 50 respondents through a structured questionnaire employing a Likert scale of 1 to 5. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 26, and regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between transparency and public trust. The findings indicate a significant positive relationship between public administration transparency and public trust, with an R-squared value of 0.452. This suggests that approximately 45.2% of the variance in public trust can be explained by transparency. The results highlight the importance of improving openness, accessibility, and accountability in government to enhance public trust. This study provides valuable insights for policymakers seeking to foster greater trust through improved transparency in Indonesia's public administration.
