“…This finding is consistent with the results of Cunha et al (Cunha et al, 2015), and Binelli et al (Binelli et al, 2012) who showed that early negative life experiences significantly predict social anxiety. These findings were also consistent with previous research that early life experiences lead to the formation of the defectiveness/shame schema (Sedighimornani et al, 2020) and the defectiveness/shame schema significantly predicts social anxiety (Lee et al, 2014).…”

"Introduction: Recently emotion-focused therapy has developed as an additional approach and considers the role of primary emotions such as shame in the formation and persistence of SAD. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the theoretical model of emotion-focused therapy for SAD by considering the role of early negative memories, humiliation and the mediating role of self-defectiveness/shame schema in the etiology of SAD. Method: This cross-sectional descriptive study recruited a sample of 105 students, 44 males (41.9%) 61 females (58.1%), diagnosed with SAD by psychologists from Shahid Beheshti University Counseling Center. Participants ranging in age from 18 to 34 with a mean age of 23.1 years (SD=3.5) completed the Social Phobia Inventory, Humiliation Inventory, Early Life Experiences Scale, Defectiveness /Shame Schema subscale of the Young Schema Questionnaire-Short Form. Results: Data were analyzed using SmartPLS-SEM. The results showed that early childhood experiences and humiliation significantly predict SAD. Also, the indirect effects of the independent variables through defectiveness/shame schema on SAD were significant. Conclusions: Consistent with the assumptions of the emotion-focused approach to SAD, these results confirm that early life experiences and humiliation with the development of shame schemes play an important role in the etiology of SAD and must be considered for therapy to be effective. The results of this study suggest that the components of the emotion-focused model can have therapeutic value as targets of intervention in randomized clinical trials."

“…Multiple research studies have shown that those who are anxious about receiving a poor rating might experience anxiety and become more agitated in social evaluation situations [27]. According to [25] and [15] interpretations, internalized guilt, and fear of receiving a poor assessment are risk factors for social anxiety. Between transman and transwoman, there is a substantial difference in the mean score for social anxiety, internalized shame, and fear of unfavorable assessment.…”

This study investigates how internalized guilt and fear of being judged negatively influence social anxiety in transgender people, using the Internalized Shame Scale [9] and the Fear of Negative Assessing [24] trans men and trans women and the Adult Social Anxiety Scale. People who identified as transgender participated in the study using a purposive sampling technique and a correlational research design. The research included only transgender women (n = 22) and men (n = 10). The age of participants from South Indian states varied between her 18 years and her 50 years (M = 27.12, SD = 6.22). The outcomes of the research show that the trans women experience moderate social anxiety and significant fear of being negatively evaluated and internalizing shame. Social anxiety, internalized shame, and Fear of receiving a poor grade is positively connected. The findings of a multiple regression analysis showed that social anxiety was strongly predicted by internalized guilt and fear of receiving a poor judgment. Talking to strangers, engaging with individuals of the opposite sex, public speaking, and interacting with powerful people can all cause anxiety and discomfort. Summary of the present findings reveal that uncertainty transgender persons are more likely to experience a range of problems, such as: Social anxiety, psychological discomfort, and agony from being associated with prejudice in many vocations on a regular basis. It has been noted that support from friends, family, and the social network can minimize mental health problems. The distinction between transman and transwoman may have been driven by internalized guilt, fear of being judged negatively, and social anxiety since changing to a female may cause greater losses than a transgender man does.

The study examined the mediating effect of internalized shame on the relationship between affiliate stigma and interpersonal anxiety among adolescents with siblings who had autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and the moderated mediating effect of mother-adolescent communication openness. The participants consisted of 139 adolescents (boys 48.9%, high-school students 79.8%) who had siblings with ASD. Interpersonal anxiety, affiliate stigma, internalized shame, and mother-adolescent communication openness were measured using the Social Anxiety Scale for Adolescents (La Greca & Lopez, 1998), the Affiliate Stigma Scale (Mak & Cheung, 2008), the Internalized Shame Scale (Cook, 1988), and the Parent-Adolescent Communication Scale (Barnes & Olson, 1982), respectively. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation coefficients. Process Macro Models 4 and 7 were used to examine the mediating effect and the moderated mediating effect. The results indicated that internalized shame mediated the effect of affiliate stigma on interpersonal anxiety among adolescents who had siblings with ASD. However, there was no significant moderated mediating effect of mother-adolescent communication openness on the relationship between affiliate stigma, internalized shame and interpersonal anxiety. These findings suggest that it is necessary to improve social awareness of individuals with ASD and their family members to prevent adolescents who have siblings with ASD from having affiliate stigma and to help them reduce interpersonal anxiety. The results also highlight the importance of counseling programs for adolescents with siblings with ASD as a way of preventing or alleviating their interpersonal anxiety by reducing internalized shame, even where they experience affiliate stigma.
