This document discusses research on disclosure and identity in social media. It summarizes five sources that examine how online disclosure affects impression formation, relationships and community, the effect of identity on social media use, what constitutes highly personal information, and examinations of social identity. The document also outlines a proposed study on how social media disclosure affects internal identity and self-worth, with a questionnaire and focus groups examining topics like privacy, motivation for disclosure, and effects on self-esteem. Results suggest disclosure levels and truthfulness impact relationships and self-esteem, with more real disclosure correlating to greater online emotional involvement and connection.
