This work includes contributions from renowned scholars in interpersonal uncertainty and information regulation, focusing on processes that bridge boundaries within and across disciplines, while maintaining emphasis on interpersonal contexts. Disciplines represented here include interpersonal, family, and health communication, as well as relational and social psychology. Key features of the volume include:
- comprehensive coverage integrating the latest research on disclosure, information seeking, and uncertainty
- a highly theoretical content, socially meaningful in nature (applied to real-world contexts)
- an interdisciplinary approach that crosses sub-fields within communication.
This volume is a unique and timely resource for advanced study in interpersonal, health, or family communication. With its emphasis on theory, the book is an excellent resource for graduate courses addressing theory and/or theory construction, and it will also appeal to scholars interested in applied research.
