TOO MUCH INFORMATION HOW WHAT YOU SAY WILL EFFECT YOUR RELATIONS

TOO MUCH INFORMATION = WHEN SOME ONE DISCLOSES TOO MUCH GIVEN THE RELATIONSHIP 2

The amount of personal information we can handle, depends on the relationship we have with the one sharing it. 3

Rule of thumb: the closer, the more info Interesting for both parties Follow the social norms that exist between the parties 4

THE FACE THEORY WE HAVE A REASON WITH MOST THINGS WE SAY. … BUT WE ALWAYS TAKE EACH OTHERS ‘FACE’ INTO ACCOUNT Aspects of face: respect, equality, personal space 5

CHANGING THE BORDERS OF WHAT WE CAN SAY TO EACH OTHER, CHANGES THE RELATION. … AND THE OTHER WAY ROUND - intimacy - impression management 6

What about the social media?! We experience ‘information friction’ Breaking: in research no correlation was found between providing personal info online and a lack of concern for privacy ‘stranger-on-the-train-effect’ (urban legend?) Impression Management To the Max!! 7
