The rank order of self-disclosure related disclos ure targets was friends(M = 1.25), sibling(M~l.
09)，mother(M = 1.00)，father(M=0.63).
The rank order of alienation was normlessness (M = 36.54)，self-estrangement(M =35.94), pow erlessness (M =35.63), social isolation (M = 33.85).
meaninglessness(M = 33.55), cultural estrangement(M = 31.57).
