Answer: Self-clarification

Step-by-step explanation:

Self-disclosure is when we intentionally reveal something important about ourselves to someone who couldn´t otherwise know it. It provides several benefits, such as Catharsis, Reciprocity, and Relationship Maintenance & Enhancement.

Self-Clarification refers to how talking about our beliefs, opinions, ideas, and feelings with someone else can help us make those thoughts more clear even to ourselves. It´s the beneficial effect of being able to explain ourselves better.
