Abstract:
Adolescence is a life stage beset by a growing desire for privacy. This study evaluated adolescents\' experiences across four types of potentially privacy-invasive behaviors (PPIVBs) and within four different types of relationships. 158 adolescents (Mage = 16.9 years, SD = 1.0; 53.5% female) reported on the frequency of the PPIVBs, perceived control over the behaviors, secret/private information threatened by the behaviors, and feelings of privacy invasion produced by the behaviors. Privacy experiences were more similar across relationships than across types of behavior. Stronger feelings of privacy invasion were reported for PPIVBs involving electronics and information, for behaviors by family members, when behaviors occurred infrequently, when adolescents perceived greater control over whether the behaviors occurred, and when behaviors threated secret/private information.
摘要:
青春期是一个生活阶段,人们对隐私的渴望与日俱增。这项研究评估了青少年在四种类型的潜在隐私侵犯行为(PPIVB)和四种不同类型的关系中的经历。158名青少年(法师=16.9岁,SD=1.0;53.5%女性)报告了PPIVB的频率,感知到对行为的控制,受行为威胁的秘密/私人信息,以及行为所产生的隐私侵犯的感觉。不同关系的隐私体验比不同类型的行为更相似。据报道,涉及电子和信息的PPIVB对隐私侵犯的感觉更强,家庭成员的行为,当行为很少发生时,当青少年对行为是否发生有更大的控制时,当行为威胁秘密/私人信息时。
