In the Outback, Tracking the Elusive Concept

Concepts whose meaning, importance to my thesis, and previous usage and development across an array of disparate academic communities has vexed and perplexed over the last few weeks:

  • Social Presence
  • Awareness
  • Connection
  • Intimacy
  • Expression
  • Self-Presentation
  • Relationship
