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 in relation to parent-adolescent interaction.Keywords
