This study investigated the longitudinal bidirectional associations between likeability, popularity, fear of negative evaluation, and social avoidance, to aid in preventing the negative consequences and persistent trajectories of low social status and heightened social anxiety. In total, 1741 adolescents in grades 7-9 participated at 3 yearly waves. A self-report questionnaire measured fear of negative evaluation. Peer nominations assessed likeability, popularity, and social avoidance. Lower popularity predicted more avoidance, and vice versa. More avoidance was related to lower likeability over time. Being less popular and/or more liked by peers, increased fear of negative evaluation. Support for a transactional model between social anxiety and social status was found, but distinguishing different social status and social anxiety components is necessary.
本研究调查了受欢迎程度、人缘、对负面评价的恐惧和社交回避之间的纵向双向关联,以帮助预防低社会地位和社交焦虑加剧的负面后果及持续轨迹。共有1741名7至9年级的青少年参与了为期三年的三次调查。一份自填式问卷测量了对负面评价的恐惧。同伴提名评估了人缘、受欢迎程度和社交回避情况。较低的受欢迎程度预示着更多的回避行为,反之亦然。随着时间的推移,更多的回避行为与较低的人缘有关。不那么受欢迎和/或更受同伴喜欢会增加对负面评价的恐惧。研究发现了社交焦虑和社会地位之间的相互作用模型的证据,但区分不同的社会地位和社交焦虑成分是必要的。
