This study investigated the interoceptive accuracy (IAc) of shy adolescents during anticipation of public speaking with a 2 × 2 factorial design. Altogether, 637 junior secondary students in an eastern province of China were sampled and screened with the Chinese version of Cheek and Buss shyness scale. The top 27% of students were considered the shy group ( = 30, 16 girls, = 13.03, = 0.67), whereas the bottom 27% were labelled the non-shy group ( = 31, 16 girls, = 13.16, = 0.86). The two groups of participants estimated their heart rates during specified intervals using a mental tracking paradigm in two conditions (baseline vs. anticipation), while their actual heart rates were simultaneously measured. The results indicated that: (1) the shy adolescents were more accurate in estimating their actual heart rate than non-shy adolescents; and (2) both shy and non-shy adolescents exhibit enhanced IAc in anticipation conditions when compared with baseline conditions. Implications of the higher IAc of shy adolescents and the state feature of IAc are discussed.
本研究采用 2×2 因子设计，考察了害羞青少年在预期公开演讲时的内感受准确性（IAc）。研究在中国东部一个省份抽取了 637 名初中生，并采用中文版 Cheek 和 Buss 害羞量表对其进行了筛选。得分最高的 27%的学生被视为害羞组（n=30，女生 16 名， =13.03， =0.67），得分最低的 27%的学生被视为不害羞组（n=31，女生 16 名， =13.16， =0.86）。两组参与者在两种条件（基线与预期）下使用心理追踪范式在指定时间间隔内估计自己的心率，同时同步测量他们的实际心率。结果表明：（1）害羞的青少年在估计自己的实际心率时比不害羞的青少年更准确；（2）与基线条件相比，害羞和不害羞的青少年在预期条件下都表现出了更高的 IAc。讨论了害羞青少年更高的 IAc 和 IAc 的状态特征的含义。
