This study investigated the relationship between privacy consciousness for
others
and disclosing
others
’ information on Twitter. A model was developed based on a previous study in which this relationship was mediated by concern for
others
’ privacy on Twitter. 153 undergraduate participants who were regular Twitter users were asked to respond to a questionnaire inquiring about disclosing information about friends and acquaintances on their Twitter accounts during the past month. Participants also responded to scales assessing consciousness about
others
’ privacy and concerns about
others
’ privacy on Twitter. As expected, the results supported our predictive model. However, there was no significant direct relationship between privacy consciousness for
others
and disclosing
others
’ information on Twitter.
