This study examines how blog-mediated public relations (BMPR) can influence relational trust. It hypothesizes that blog posts with high narrative structure, dialogical self, and blogger credibility will result in more relational trust than low levels of these variables. An experiment was conducted manipulating these variables in blog posts written by a marketing vice president. 314 students evaluated levels of relational trust, blogger credibility, narrative structure, and dialogical self. Results supported the hypotheses that high levels of these variables led to greater perceived relational trust than low levels.
