Exploring Consumers’ Discontinuous Self-Disclosure From a Transactional Stress Perspective – the Case of Social Networking Sites

Based upon the stressor-strain-outcome framework, this study examines why consumers stop disclosing personal information by considering the case of social networking sites. The preliminary results show that disclosure-related stressors induce self-disclosure exhaustion, which results in discontinuous self-disclosure intention. An outlook on further research is provided.
