Doctors are the most trusted professionals in Europe and the United States while politicians command universal distrust, a survey published on Friday showed.
Teachers, police and the military are also widely admired for their integrity while top managers, journalists and lawyers were all rated "quite untrustworthy" in the poll by Germany's GfK market research firm.
Italians, Bulgarians and Czechs were found to be particularly unhappy with their politicians, according to the survey of more than 16,000 people in 18 countries, and lawyers were also less trusted in Italy than anywhere else.
The Swiss are most trusting of their political leaders, with 35 percent of respondents saying they were "quite trustworthy" or "very trustworthy".
Managers are mainly distrusted except in Denmark, Sweden and Romania, and journalists also command little trust outside Poland, Romania, Bulgaria and Spain.
The clergy received mixed reviews. In Romania, Sweden and Germany -- where most people are either Protestant or Roman Catholic -- they scored well.
In France and Spain as well as Greece, where most people are Orthodox, the clergy was viewed with the most suspicion.
The army commands trust everywhere but the Netherlands, and the police do so everywhere but Bulgaria.
The GfK publishes its so-called trust index once a year. It surveyed participants between March and May this year.

上周五公布的一項調查顯示，在歐洲和美國，醫生是最受信任的人，而政客最不受信任。
據該項由德國GfK市場調查公司開展的民意調查，教師、警察和軍人因誠實正直也得到了廣泛的信任，而高層管理人員、新聞從業者和律師則被評價為“相當不值得信賴的人”。
該項對18個國家1萬6千多人開展的調查表明，意大利人、保加利亞人和捷克人對本國的政客尤為不滿；律師在意大利的信任度比在其它地區都要低。
瑞士人對于本國政治領袖最為信任，其中35%的受訪者認為他們“相當值得信賴”或“十分值得信賴”。
除了在丹麥、瑞典和羅馬尼亞外，管理人員的信任度普遍較低；新聞從業者在除波蘭、羅馬尼亞、保加利亞和西班牙外的國家和地區，得到的信任較少。
神職人員得到的評價不一。在以新教徒和天主教徒為主的羅馬尼亞、瑞典和德國，神職人員得到的評價較高。
而在以東正教徒為主的法國、西班牙和希臘，神職人員的信任度則較低。
軍人在荷蘭以外的地方信任度都較高；警察在除了保加利亞以外的地方信任度較高。
GfK市場調查公司每年都會公布一次所謂的“信任度指數”。該調查于今年3月至5月之間進行。
