Is part of relational
development, and the self is
carried out through relational
connections.
Social Networking sites allow people to
connect with friends, families and others
in an existing social network while
establishing new connections and
forming relationships with people around
the world. Taking place on social
networking sites lead us to question many
classic studies and observations related to
disclosure. Social networking sites have
changed the way people think about self-
disclosure but also perceptions of social
value and belonging.
