Abstract
This study examines how self-disclosure predicts mental health outcomes in the context of online depression groups in China. We investigated whether engagement with different types of self-disclosure can help mitigate depressive symptoms. Results from online survey (N = 205) indicated that the depth, honesty, intent and valence of self-disclosure have positive relationships with perceived social support, and perceived esteem support served as a key mechanism in the effects of self-disclosure.
