Computer-mediated communication and self-awareness – A selective review

作者:

Highlights:

• Concepts of self-awareness and computer-mediated communication (CMC) are introduced.

• Studies on CMC and empirical measures of self-awareness are reviewed.

• Evidence indicate that CMC directly affects state self-awareness.

• This effect might be moderated by trait self-awareness.

• There is a need to resurrect research on self-awareness and contemporary media use.
