In this study, we looked at whether social anxiety is socialized, or influenced by peers' social anxiety, more in some peer crowds than others. Adolescents in crowds with eye-catching appearances such as Goths and Punks (here termed Radical), were compared with three comparison groups. Using data from 796 adolescents (353 girls and 443 boys; M ( age ) = 13.36) at three timepoints, the results show that adolescents affiliating with the Radical crowd tended to select peers from the same crowd group. Being a member of a crowd in itself did not predict socialization of social anxiety, but adolescents in the Radical crowd were more influenced by their peers' social anxiety than adolescents who did not affiliate with the Radical crowd group. The results suggest that through a bidirectional process, adolescents affiliating with Radical crowds may narrow their peer relationship ties in time, and in turn socialize each other's social anxiety.
在这项研究中，我们研究了社交焦虑是否会被社会化，或者受到同伴社交焦虑的影响，在某些同伴群体中比在其他群体中更为明显。我们将具有醒目外表的群体（如哥特人和朋克人，这里称为“激进派”）中的青少年与三个对照组进行了比较。利用来自三个时间点的 796 名青少年（353 名女孩和 443 名男孩；M（年龄）= 13.36）的数据，结果表明，与激进派群体有联系的青少年往往会选择来自同一群体的同伴。成为一个群体的成员本身并不能预测社交焦虑的社会化，但与不隶属于激进派群体的青少年相比，激进派群体中的青少年更容易受到同伴社交焦虑的影响。研究结果表明，通过一个双向的过程，与激进派群体有联系的青少年可能会随着时间的推移缩小他们的同伴关系纽带，并反过来使彼此的社交焦虑社会化。
