The development of a 22-item measure of shyness, the Social Reticence Scale, is described. Shyness is a common but often seriously limiting constellation of feelings and attitudes experienced in social situations. Research on shyness has been hampered by the lack of a valid, reliable and easily administered instrument with which to measure shyness. The Social Reticence Scale was found to have substantial internal consistency and test-retest reliability and several assessments of criterion and construct validity suggested that the scale was a valid measure of shyness. Preliminary evidence regarding discriminant validity is also presented as well as the factor structure of the scale.
本文描述了一个由22个项目组成的害羞程度测量工具——社交沉默量表的编制过程。害羞是在社交场合中常见但往往严重限制个人发展的一系列情感和态度。由于缺乏一个有效、可靠且易于实施的测量工具，害羞相关的研究受到了阻碍。社交沉默量表具有较高的内部一致性和重测信度，多项效标效度和结构效度评估表明该量表是害羞程度的有效测量工具。文中还给出了关于区分效度的初步证据以及该量表的因子结构。
