Abstract
Issues of disclosure and privacy management are important to the development and maintenance of interpersonal relationships. We discuss communication privacy management (CPM) theory as a framework for understanding how people make choices to disclose information to others or protect it from access. CPM theory is a rules- and systems-based theory about disclosure and privacy management. After presenting CPM, we highlight recent trends in interpersonal communication using the theoretical framework, including examinations of CPM and interpersonal health issues, the use of social media, and family communication. The chapter concludes with discussion of directions for future research and evaluation of the CPM theoretical framework.
