“…Younger people tend to self-disclose more information than older people, both in face-to-face (e.g., Knapp, Ellis, & Williams, 1980;Sinha, 1972) and online settings (e.g., Ma & Leung, 2006). There may be age differences in disclosure behaviors among Facebook users, but much of the research on Facebook utilizes undergraduate student samples, which may not provide the variance necessary to observe differences due to age.…”

“…As communicators develop relationships over time, levels In relational communication In CMC are expected to change In proportion to message accumulatlor.. Fdlowlng social penetration theory (Altman & Taylor, 1973), Knapp, Ellis, and Williams (1980) suggest that when Interpersonal relationships develop, several dimensions of relational/communicative behavior Increase toward greater affillativeness In generally linear trends, with plateaus marking latter periods of relational stabilization. While these general trends may occur In several dimensions, Knapp et al (1980) note, the precise progression rate or plateau In anyone dimension may differ from those of other dimensions.…”

Relational Communication in Computer-Mediated Interaction

This study involved an experiment of the effects of time and communication channel—asynchronous computer conferencing versus face‐to‐face meetings—on relational communication in groups. Prior research on the relational aspects of computer‐mediated communication has suggested strong depersonalizing effects of the medium due to the absence of nonverbal cues. Past research is criticized for failing to incorporate temporal and developmental perspectives on information processing and relational development. In this study, data were collected from 96 subjects assigned to computer conferencing or face‐to‐face zero‐history groups of 3, who completed three tasks over several weeks’time. Results showed that computer‐mediated groups increased in several relational dimensions to more positive levels and that these subsequent levels approximated those of face‐to‐face groups. Boundaries on the predominant theories of computer‐mediated communication are recommended, and principles from uncertainty reduction and social penetration are discussed.

“…American researchers have assumed that there is a single dimension, along which topics could be scored and along which target persons could also be scored for the degree of disclosure to them (Archer, 1980;Chaikin & Derlega, 1976;Jourard, 1964Jourard, , 1971. Knapp, Ellis, and Williams (1980) …”
