Personal Narrative: Communication Privacy Management

Self-disclosure is an important part of any close relationship. Without sharing our own fears and weaknesses, we can

Confidentiality means not telling anyone anything that they don’t need to know, like what the child or parent has told you and you go around telling others. It is also important not to tell anyone, other than needs to know about child or parents private

Am I real, or am I the product of the society I live in? Does Big Brother care about me; am I allowed to be myself? When I was younger I was told I needed to get any job just to survive. Is this the person that I want to be in life, or do I have some screws loose in my head causing all of my parts to break requiring some “mechanic” to come and repair them and give me a new manual on how to use them? I don’t know what’s real, what’s fake, or if anything in life matters. All I know is that I am a man of dreams, someone who has fought for what he has whether this is at a job I’ve accepted or a school I attend, and will continue fighting until the day he finally turns over. I believe it’s important as a person to do what you love, and become more

When there maybe a conflict or dilemma in relation to sharing information and maintaining confidentiality.

Self-disclosure is the voluntary sharing of personal history, preferences, attitudes, feelings, values, secrets, etc. with another person (Griffin, p. 97). As stated in the introduction Altman and Taylor look at relationships as an “onions.” The different layers are representative of different feelings of a person. When

Communicating with a close friend or a spouse can be difficult at times. I think the closer we get with a person, weather it be a friend or a spouse, I expect them to understand my hidden

Individuals have different levels of disclosure and when combined with another individual’s disclosure level can have positive or negative outcomes. The decision to communicate can also cause uncertainty within relationships. Prior research was conducted to try and measure what exactly causes the uncertainty and negative results to show up in a relationship. Intimacy, security, problematic events, and irritations are all different elements that can be stronger or weaker in the relationship based on the disclosure (Theiss and Solomon 2006).

Appropriate disclosure refers to the amount of information that is shared in the conversation, including both the breadth and depth of subject matter. In our conversation, I think we both did very well with this particular concept. Our range of disclosure was quite appropriate for an eight minute discussion between acquaintances. I feel that if any deeper information would have been disclosed, one or both of us may have felt uncomfortable with the situation (Canary, Cody, & Manusov, 2008, p. 506).

Communication is one of the most important things in our lives. Quality communication in marriage is defined as the interpersonal, transactional, symbolic process by which marriage partners achieve and maintain understanding of each other (Montgomery, 1981). Marriage and communication are far more complicated than it seems. This paper will discuss the self-disclosure in

Communication Privacy Management Theory is designed to help explain the decision where people balance the advantages and disadvantages of revealing or concealing information to certain people in certain contexts. One major factor in this balancing act, the theory argues, is that of boundary linkage. In short, by disclosing information to another party, the sharer is transferring co-ownership of that information to that party, and without the establishment of rules regarding that information, that new party is able to then transfer the information ownership to additional parties. This creates a tension in that the initial owner still holds the belief that they are the true owner of information, and yet they’ve lost a certain measure of control; this tension, or boundary turbulence, can in turn lead to concern or distress. By looking into these feelings of tension and concern that occur after decision to disclose or conceal information have been made, a better understanding of what effects boundary linkage has on people’s decisions can be obtained.

I was given the task of visually watching non-verbal actions and communications in today’s time. What I got was not as farfetched as what I had guessed I would learn, but even the elders learn something every once in a while. Below are three situations that I had taken notes over, one being personal one-on-one relation, the others being social situations. Here are my findings

The dangers of keeping toxic secrets are innumerable and maintaining them becomes quite the tedious task. Parents may come to realize that keeping health secrets and power away from their children can be especially difficult because they need to organize their lives in a way to continue in secrecy and act like nothing is going on. The lies continue to grow as children ask why one parent appears to be tired all the time or why the other one is always at the hospital. Siblings will eventually start to discuss what is taking place among their family, and they may even figure out the secret taking place within their family. It is during these times that communication between parents and their children becomes full of mistrust, uncomfortable silences, and meaningless arguments (Imber-Black, 2014).

When looking into theories and how it affects personnel in day-to-day lives depends on the individual themselves. While exploring Communication Privacy Management Theory, I can relate to this on almost a daily basis. With being in the military, communication is happening all the time, from feedback sessions, to evaluations to finding solutions, but it is about how the two people involved do with the information and how much is shared and how it is controlled. I am a private person and I do not like sharing personal details about myself or feelings. Feedback sessions can be difficult to receive and give private information about someone. It can be a time where someone feels vulnerable, exposed and thinking about how much do I want to tell this person, what can and will they do once they know this information or simply how can I

Communication privacy management (CPM) is a theory about how people make decisions about revealing and concealing private information. CPM theory suggests that individuals maintain and coordinate privacy boundaries (the limits of what they are willing to share) with various communication partners depending on the perceived benefits and costs of information disclosure. People believe they own and have a right to control their private information and control their private information through the use of personal privacy rules. When others are told or given access to a person’s private information, they become co-owners of that information.
