The Facebook phenomenon: online self-disclosure and uncertainty reduction. - Free Onlin... - 0 views

  • Facebook has begun to transform the way in which individuals perceive relationship development and interpersonal reactions, namely through self-disclosure.

  • Facebook ranks higher than any other form of communication technology, including phone and email, and has become the number one choice of communication for university students
  • Self-disclosure is the process of revealing personal information about one's self through verbal communication (Sheldon, 2009).

  • Research has shown that online communication lends itself to self-disclosure (Joinson, 2001; McKenna & Bargh, 2000; Tidwell & Walther, 2002; Wallace, 1999). Because of the relative anonymity that online interactions may offer, the risks of self-disclosure may be greatly reduced, and disclosers should be much less fearful of potential condemnation or rejection (McKenna & Bargh, 1998, 2000).
  • serve the purpose of personal expression well and represent an ideal medium for self-disclosure.
  • Previous studies have shown that bloggers overall are fairly young.

  • 87 expressed concerns that what they blogged could negatively impact their lives.
  • Among these respondents, 23.00% (n=20) explicitly reported they were afraid that their family members might read their blogs. For example, one respondent wrote: "[I'm afraid] that my parents will eventually discover its existence.
  • The typical approach to blogging, at least among the respondents of this study, may more appropriately be described as lighthearted: Bloggers simply intend to share a little fun and stay in touch. When it comes to self-disclosure, it seems that they are cautious so as to avoid potential backlash.
  • discursive anonymity, on the other hand, refers to the condition where verbal communication cannot be attributed to a particular source.
