Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decisions about self-disclosure-whether to reveal one's thoughts, feel ings, or past experiences to another person, or the level of intimacy of such disclosure-are part of the everyday life of most persons. The nature of the decisions that a person makes will have an impact on his or her life. They will determine the kinds of relationships the person has with others; how others perceive him or her; and the degree of self knowledge and awareness that the person possesses. The study of self-disclosure has interested specialists from many disciplines, including personality and social psychologists, clinical and counseling psychologists, and communications researchers. Our book brings together the work of experts from these various disciplines with the hope that knowledge about work being done on self-disclosure in related disciplines will be increased. A strong emphasis in each of the chapters is theory development and the integration of ideas about self-disclosure. The book's chapters explore three major areas, including the interrelationship of self-disclosure and personality as well as the role of self-disclosure in the development, maintenance, and deterioration of personal relationships, and the con tribution of self-disclosure to psychotherapy, marital therapy, and counseling.

Download or read book The Function of Self disclosure in Positive Mental Health and a Perceived Interpersonal Relationship written by Susan Beth Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sidney Jourard has hypothesized that self-disclosure leads to positive mental health and that self-disclosure is also an index of the strength of a relationship between two people. Past research has not found a high correlation between self-disclosure and positive mental health, also recent research has not found a significant correlation between self-disclosure and the strength of a relationship between two best friends. The present study was designed to investigate the function of both positive mental health and strength of relationship between two best friends, in regard to self-disclosure. The results of the present study showed a significant effect of strength of relationship on self-disclosure. However, positive mental health did not significantly effect self-disclosure nor did an interaction of strength of the relationship and positive mental health effect self-disclosure. Future studies were advised to specify the type of self-disclosure being investigated.

Book excerpt: Kreps (2001) notes an interpersonal dimension to health where there are relational influences to health outcomes. These interactions are further complicated by culture, as various cultures have differing cultural perceptions about mental illness. These perceptions ultimately affect how one communicates (Dutta & Basu, 2008). This study combines Communication Privacy Management Theory (Petronio & Dunham, 2008) which provides a foundation for how people manage and share information, along with Orbe's (1998) Co-Cultural Theory which shows how positions of power between dominant and marginalized group members affect communication practices, to explore co-cultural differences in self-disclosure of mental illness. In this study, 314 participants who were either disclosers of a mental health diagnosis or recipients of a mental health diagnosis took part in a web-based survey on communicating mental health. Results showed that regardless of co-cultural status, both White and non-White disclosers shared their diagnosis either through direct (straight-forward) communication or by explaining their diagnosis or treatment. Recipients also found out through prior knowledge or observation (either by observing the discloser's behavior or because they were told by someone else). White and non-White participants also listed similar reasons for disclosing, and similar responses by recipients. However, while ethnicity or co-cultural status did not play a role in how one decided to tell, there were significant differences between Whites and non-Whites on ethnic effects on choosing to self-disclose and recipient responses to that disclosure. In this instance, non-Whites were more likely than their White counterparts to note that their ethnicity played a role in choosing to disclose or in how they reacted to the disclosure. They cited cultural customs and beliefs as reasons for why they felt ethnicity affected disclosure. Thus, it is implied that cocultural status does in fact play a role in self-disclosure of a mental illness, and that the stigma of mental illness among various cultural groups is still present.
