To be known and to know others are essential aspects of social interaction. Disclosing personal information and perceiving it in others are all aspects of an individual's experience. Many problems at the forefront of our times--such as divorce, AIDS, rape, and child abuse--challenge our understanding of what should and should not be told. This timely volume presents the most recent developments in the analysis of disclosure processes. It brings together issues as diverse as loneliness, moral development, family therapy, and child abuse into a substantive whole that will prove an invaluable contribution to the field.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"...apt to be as successful as its predecessors [in the Cambridge Studies in Social and Emotional Development series] in heralding a new era in the developmental study of interpersonal relationships. This volume is accessible and engaging to those new to the study of disclosure processes and social relationships, and at the same time providing a provocative tour de force for scholars engaged in research on these topics. The work goes beyond a comprehensive review of classic and current research and theory, advancing an inclusive perspective on processes and variations in self-disclosure during childhood and adolescence. A luminary cast of contributors....identifies nascent issues and ascending investigations likely to dominate the discussion of self-disclosure well into the next century." Brett Laursen and Margaret Ferreira, Journal of Adolescence
Book Description
Modern society in particular forces us to scrutinize the means we use to reveal or hide the substance of our closest thoughts; divorce, AIDS, rape, and child abuse all challenge our perceptions of what should and should not be told. It is only recently that developmental and social psychologists have attempted a systematic analysis of these "disclosure processes"--this volume presents the culmination of this fresh research.Of interest to developmental psychologists, social psychologists, clinical psychologists, social wor kers, education specialists and nurses.
