“…Early adolescents with social anxiety worry excessively about being judged or rejected (Kearney, 2005) and are likely to act in accordance with what they perceive as normative to avoid these outcomes. When perceived peer approval of substance use is low, female early adolescents with elevated social anxiety symptoms may come to believe that engaging in a non-normative behavior will result in loss of peer bonds.…”

“…This is perhaps not surprising given that concerns and worry about social evaluation are core features of social anxiety (Kearney, 2005), and therefore, the degree to which peers approve of substance use would conceivably be more important to socially anxious early adolescents than their peers’ substance use behaviors. Our findings align with prior research that also failed to detect significant interactions between social anxiety and descriptive norms when predicting college drinking frequency (Buckner et al, 2011).…”

“…Socially anxious individuals avoid social situations and have excessive concerns about negative evaluation and interpersonal rejection (Kearney, 2005). Although high levels of social anxiety are associated with adult alcohol and cigarette use (for reviews, see Morissette, Tull, Gulliver, Kamholz, & Zimering, 2007; Morris, Stewart, & Ham, 2005), there is evidence to support social anxiety as a risk (Buckner et al, 2008; Deas-Nesmith et al, 1998; Zimmermann et al, 2003) and a protective factor (e.g., Fröjd, Ranta, Kaltiala-Heino, & Marttunen, 2011; Myers, Aarons, Tomlinson, & Stein, 2003; Stewart, Morris, Mellings, & Komar, 2006) in adolescence.…”

This study prospectively examines the association between social and generalized anxiety symptoms and alcohol and cigarette use in early adolescence and how injunctive (perceived peer approval of use) and descriptive (perceived peer use) norms may moderate the association. Sex differences were also examined. Data were taken from a longitudinal study investigating problem behavior and adolescent substance use. The community sample (N=387) was assessed annually, and data from the first two waves of assessment were used for this study. Early adolescents were between the ages of 11 and 13 at the first assessment (mean age=11.05, SD=0.55, 55% female). Peer norms moderated the association between both social and generalized anxiety symptoms and the likelihood of alcohol and cigarette use for girls, but not for boys. Specifically, girls with elevated levels of generalized anxiety symptoms were at risk for use when perceived peer use was low, and protected from use when perceived peer use was high. Girls with elevated levels of social anxiety symptoms were at risk for use when perceived peer approval of use was high, and protected from use when perceived peer approval of use was low. Past studies have found inconsistent support for an association between anxiety and adolescent substance use, and our findings provide some clarity regarding for whom and when anxiety operates as a risk/protective factor. Social context and sex are critical for understanding the role of different forms of anxiety in the etiology of adolescent alcohol and cigarette use.

“…Early versions of the DSM (pre-IV) distinguished social avoidance disorder from social phobia, and while later versions offer many different diagnosis (Kearney, 2005), the research literature continues to find two main components of social anxiety. Consider research on the psychometric properties of one of the main social anxiety self-report scales: The Social Anxiety Scale for Children (La Greca, Dandes, Wick, Shaw, & Stone, 1988).…”

When two people view the same event and later try to remember it together, what one person says affects what the other person reports. A model is presented which predicts that this memory conformity effect will be moderated, in different ways, by two components of social anxiety. People with higher fear of negative evaluation should be more influenced by their peers than others, but those with higher social anxiety related to avoiding social situations may be less influenced by their peers than others. Pairs of adolescent-aged participants took part in a face recognition study. For each trial one person responded and then the next person responded. The effect of what the first person said on the second person's response was measured; the size of the effect was moderated by the social anxiety measures as predicted by the model. This is the first study showing the relationship between social anxiety and memory suggestibility.

Bu çalışmanın amacı, bilişsel-davranışçı yaklaşımla bütünleştirilmiş sosyal beceri eğitiminin ergenlerin sosyal kaygı düzeylerine etkisini incelemektir. Araştırmada öntest sontest kontrol gruplu yarı deneysel desen kullanılmıştır. Araştırma grubu Đstanbul'da bir devlet okulunda 6. ve 7. sınıfa devam eden öğrencilerden oluşmaktadır. Deney grubundaki öğrencilere 12 oturumluk "Bilişsel-davranışçı yaklaşımla bütünleştirilmiş sosyal beceri eğitimi" verilmiş, kontrol grubuna ise araştırma kapsamında herhangi bir uygulamada bulunulmamıştır. Katılımcıların sosyal kaygı düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla veri toplama aracı olarak "Çocuklar Đçin Sosyal Anksiyete Ölçeği" ve "Çapa Çocuk ve Ergenler Đçin Sosyal Fobi Ölçeği" kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları bilişsel-davranışçı yaklaşımla bütünleştirilmiş sosyal beceri eğitiminin ergenlerin sosyal kaygısını azaltmada etkili olduğunu, ve bu etkinin altı haftalık izleme çalışması sonucunda da devam ettiğini ortaya koymuştur.
