Is Self-Disclosure Self-Revealing?

Gitter, A. George; Black, Harvey

Journal of Counseling Psychology, 23, 4, 327-332, Jul 76

Based on the factorial analysis of data collected from 260 undergraduates, this study found differences in self-revealing associated with information content, target person, and sex of subject. Gilding was found to be related to self-disclosure and intimate rather than superficial information. Dogmatism did not influence either revealing or gilding. (Author)
