Abstract

Summary Thirty-two male and female counseling students were administered a standardized self-disclosure experimental treatment and were controlled by eye color, sex, initial liking, initial disclosure, final liking, with slope of self-disclosures across 10 trials as the primary dependent variable. The purpose was to determine if eye color, initial liking, initial disclosure, final liking, and sex variables effected slope of disclosures. Initial liking was significantly related to final liking (p < .0001) regardless of the experimental treatment. Eye color was related to self-disclosure levels (p < .02), and implications are hypothesized regarding the heritability of responsivity to emotionally arousing stimuli by eye color.
