Self-disclosure: Implications for the study of parent-adolescent interaction

Abstract: Self-disclosure is a process by which persons make themselves known to each other. As such, it is an integral part of the family interaction process. In families in which adolescents are present, interaction may change as a result of changes in degree, topic, or rate of self-disclosure. Self-disclosure of adolescents and parents may change as a result of adolescent development, specifically changes in cognitive and physical development and self-concept. Implications of changes in self-disclosure are discussed … Show more

“…It is thus reasonable to conclude that male adolescents are indeed less inclined to discuss private worries and problems with their parents or reveal symptoms of emotional stress, so that the parents are less informed about the emotional health of their sons. The results of Monck (1991) on adolescent females, as well as those of Norell (1984) on adolescent males, showing that the willingness of sons to disclose private information depends on the gender of the parent, support this view. As our results conclusively show, fathers in particular know quite little about how their sons may be suffering from emotional stress.…”

“…Research on parent-child communication among younger children often focuses on the development of negotiation skills (e.g., Klimes-Dougan & Kopp, 1999), the use of communication between parents and young children to support early language and cognitive development (Thompson, 2006, special issue of Merrill-Palmer Quarterly ), and in the development of the attachment relationship (Grych, 2002). In contrast, by adolescence, research on parent-child communication focuses almost exclusively on the pervasiveness of parent-adolescent conflict (Montemayor, 1986) and declines in self-disclosure to parents (e.g., Norrell, 1984). Further, across ethnicity, the nature of parent-child relations have been documented with African American parent-child dyads demonstrating more direct communication styles compared to European American, and Asian American families (Gonzales et al, 1996).…”

“…Hal ini disebabkan karena anak memiliki sensitivitas terhadap evaluasi dan kritikan sehingga anak menjadi enggan berbicara dan kehilangan penghargaan terhadap dirinya sendiri. Remaja dengan selfesteem yang stabil dilaporkan terlibat dalam interaksi yang lebih intensif dengan orang tuanya (Kernis, Brown, & Brody, 2000 (Norrell, 1984). Kesediaan orang tua untuk berinteraksi, baik ibu maupun ayah masingmasing memberikan kontribusi signifikan terhadap perkembangan self-esteem remaja.…”
