Are you a different person online than in the
real world???
Researchers
at the University of Sydney are conducting studies into how people
interact with each other online. How does this relationship develop? Is
it different to the development of relationships between individuals who
meet face-to-face? If so, in what way do these interactions differ? Is
it the same for friendships and counselling contexts? Where does
personality fit in? These are the questions we hope to answer in the
course of our investigations.
Our current
study is titled Relationships in Different Contexts: The Role of
Time, Context, Trust and Personality. This research is being carried
out as part of a Ph.D. project by Ms Melanie Nguyen and her supervisors
Dr Andrew Campbell and Dr Steven Cumming.
With this
website we hope to share our research, recruit voluntary participants to
be part of the study and provide further information regarding online
psychology.
The recruitment phase
of this project has now ceased. Findings will be posted on the
Present Research page as they
become available. Thank you for your interest and please contact us
should you have any further enquiries.
Thank you to City of
Sydney Libraries for their assistance in the recruitment process. For
more information on their services, please see the
City of
Sydney Libraries website.
