Abstract
The present research investigated the extent of adolescents’ online self-disclosure (SD) through asystematic decadal literature review. This review identified three major research foci, with studiescategorized mainly as: (1) factors contributing to online SD of adolescents; (2) risks and consequencesof online SD; and (3) future directions of research and practical interventions to address the problems.A detailed examination of the variables covered by the studies indicated that only a few aspects relatedto adolescents’ online SD were addressed but were not analysed in depth. Some aspects of online SDreceived much attention while others received none. Based on these findings, the present researchargues that further research using sophisticated scientific research designs is needed to understandadolescents’ online SD.
