- Abstract
This research paper examines how privacy concerns affect self-disclosure on social media. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between privacy concerns and self-disclosure. To achieve this objective, document analysis was employed to examine relevant literature. The findings suggest that privacy concerns do not significantly impact self-disclosure, which aligns with the privacy paradox.
The study fills a gap in previous research and deepens our understanding of consumer behaviours concerning privacy concerns and self-disclosure on social media. The implications of these findings are twofold: First, the research contributes to the field of social media and psychology by providing theoretical insights. Second, the research offers practical guidance for businesses that use social media platforms for marketing and advertising purposes while respecting users’ privacy concerns.
In summary, this research sheds light on the nuances of privacy concerns and self-disclosure on social media, offering insights for both scholars and practitioners.
