Assignment 1: Self-Disclosure in Relationships
In this assignment, you examine the concept and role of self-disclosure in same-sex friendship and opposite-sex friendship. Researchers maintain that self-disclosure is the most important way to establish a close relationship with another person.
Prepare for this discussion by researching self-disclosure in friendships using the Argosy University online library resources and the Internet.
Think about a friendship you have with a friend of the same sex and a friendship you have with a friend of the opposite sex. Compare the levels of self-disclosure in these two types of friendships.
Respond to the following:
Analyze the level of self-disclosure in the same-sex friendship in relation to the level in the opposite-sex friendship.
Compare and contrast the differences between the two. Provide support to justify your response, referring to examples, theories, and research from your text and other readings.
Propose what methods you can use to establish a common thread of mutual trust and respect that binds the friendship, regardless of differences in gender.
Post your responses in one or two paragraphs.
All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources.
