This study investigated the relationship between body-disclosure and self-disclosure. The author drew upon current research in self-disclosure and body image and hypothesized that self-disclosure and body-disclosure would be directly related. Ss who volunteered for the experiment were matched for sex, past disclosure, and willingness to disclose to someone of the opposite sex. A social nudity experience was provided for one group, an outing day was provided for the second group, and a third group recieved no treatment. Testing included a tape recorded self-disclosure dialogue and ratings of self- and body attitudes. Finally, the Ss were asked to write their subjective "experience of the experiment." Ss who had undergone a body-disclosure experience disclosed more to each other than did Ss in the other groups. Ss also tended to like themselves better after the social nudity experience. Furthermore, they described the body-disclosing day as a peak experience.
本研究调查了身体暴露与自我表露之间的关系。作者借鉴了当前关于自我表露和身体意象的研究，并假设自我表露和身体暴露将直接相关。自愿参加实验的受试者在性别、过往表露情况以及向异性表露的意愿方面进行了匹配。为一组提供了社交裸体体验，为第二组提供了外出活动日，第三组未接受任何处理。测试包括一段录音的自我表露对话以及对自我态度和身体态度的评分。最后，要求受试者写下他们对实验的主观“体验”。经历了身体暴露体验的受试者相互之间的表露比其他组的受试者更多。在社交裸体体验后，受试者也往往更欣赏自己。此外，他们将身体暴露日描述为一种巅峰体验。
