Ellingson, Kari Trexler; Galassi, John P.
Journal of Counseling & Development, v73 n5 p535-41 May-Jun 1995
Investigated differential ability of similarity theory and social exchange theory to predict the effects of self-disclosure in a counseling versus a friendship encounter (n=80 undergraduates). Participants rated the videotaped self-disclosure of an individual in an initial dyadic encounter. Unequivocal support was not obtained for either theory. (JBJ)
