| Research Abstract |
Effects of daily stress experiences, its disclosure to close friends, and the resulting positive and negative interactions on mental health and self-concept, which is formed through long-term psychological changes, were investigated. A series of studies indicated that mental health declined and negative psychological changes were brought about when close friends showed undesirable reactions and behaviors to the disclosure of stress experiences. Furthermore, positive mental conditions were maintained, a sense of fulfillment was felt, and positive changes to the self-concept resulted from appropriate support from close friends.
