Abstract

The present study explores the relationship between self-disclosure, personality integration, and social adjustment. The study further investigates whether emotional stability acts as a mediator between the said relationships. Capitalisation theory has been used as the supporting theoretical lens to examine the proposed relationship. This research uses a paper and pencil based on questionnaire survey of 290 employees' of public and private sector organisations. Multiple hierarchical regression analysis was employed to analyse the data. The results reveal that the self-disclosure is positively associated with personality integration and social adjustment. The results further demonstrate that the emotional stability acts as a partial mediator between self-disclosure and social adjustment. The results also show that the emotional stability does not mediate the relationship between the self-disclosure and personality integration. This is the first study to test these associations, especially in a South Asian context, thus making a unique contribution to existing body of literature.
