“…This includes increased initiation of relationships, better friendship quality, greater perceived social support and feelings of belonging (Antheunis, Schouten, & Krahmer, 2016;Desjarlais, Gilmour, Sinclair, Howell, & West, 2015;Shapiro & Margolin, 2014;Valkenburg & Peter, 2007b). Moreover, the benefits of online disclosure extend to offline relationships, with longitudinal data showing that it increases the initiation of offline friendships (Gomez-Baya, Rubio-Gonzalez, & Matos, 2018). The greater ease and controllability of communicating personal or potentially embarrassing information online is thought to underlie the relationship between online disclosure and social connectedness (Shapiro & Margolin, 2014;Valkenburg & Peter, 2009a).…”

Sharing information about oneself, or self-disclosing, is a fundamental interpersonal process that facilitates the attainment of key developmental milestones during adolescence. Changes in self-disclosure behaviors support the social reorientation that sees children dependent on their parents become increasingly reliant on peers for social and emotional support. Neuroimaging research has highlighted protracted maturation of the structure and function of brain regions that support social cognitive and reward processes underlying self-disclosure during adolescence. This review explores behavioral and neural trends in self-disclosure during adolescence, including research that uses novel experimental paradigms to extend the field beyond self-report measures. Findings show that certain aspects of self-disclosure behavior have adapted to changing social environments, but they remain intrinsically valued across the adolescent period and are essential for relationship development, identity formation and overall self-worth and well-being.

Who benefits most from using social media is an important societal question that is centered around two opposing hypotheses: the rich-get-richer versus the poor-get-richer hypothesis. This study investigated the assumption that both hypotheses may be true, but only for some socially rich and some socially poor adolescents and across different time intervals. We employed a state-of-the-art measurement burst design, consisting of a three-week experience sampling study and seven biweekly follow-up surveys. Person-specific analyses of more than 70,000 observations from 383 adolescents revealed that 12% of the socially rich adolescents (high in friendship support or low in loneliness) felt closer to their friends after using social media, as opposed to about 25% of the socially poor adolescents (low in friendship support or high in loneliness). However, only 1 to 6% of all adolescents (socially rich and poor) felt closer both in the short- and longer-term. These results indicate that the rich-get-richer and the poor-get-richer hypotheses can hold both, but for different adolescents.

“…Studies that examined the rich-get-richer and poor-get-richer hypotheses with regard to friendship closeness have yielded inconsistent results 2,[4][5][6] . Some studies found that mainly rich adolescents benefit from social media use 6 , others that mainly poor adolescents benefit from social media use 5 , and yet others supported both hypotheses 4 . An important explanation for this inconsistency in the literature may be that previous studies have overlooked three theoretical principles of human development [7][8][9] and media effects 10,11 .…”

“…Adolescents with high levels of friendship support and low levels of loneliness can be considered as socially rich, whereas adolescents with low levels of friendship support and high levels of loneliness can be considered as socially poor. We focused on the three most popular social media platforms (i.e., Instagram, Snapchat, and WhatsApp) that adolescents use to communicate with their close friends 5,19,20 .…”
