Depress Anxiety. 1999;9(1):15-8.
Thirty-three social phobic adolescents were asked to name their ten most feared social situations. Two independent judges classified each situation reported by the participants into one of four situational domains: formal speaking/interactions, informal speaking/interactions, observation by others, and assertion. Fifteen participants (45.5%) were assigned a generalized subtype of social phobia because they endorsed at least moderate anxiety in all four situational domains. This subgroup scored higher on self-report measures of anxiety and depression than the rest of the sample. These results provide empirical support for the existence of subtypes of social phobia in adolescents.
33名患有社交恐惧症的青少年被要求说出他们最害怕的十种社交情境。两名独立的评判员将参与者报告的每种情境归类到四个情境领域之一:正式演讲/互动、非正式演讲/互动、被他人观察和表达主张。15名参与者(45.5%)被归为社交恐惧症的广泛性亚型,因为他们在所有四个情境领域中都表现出至少中度的焦虑。该亚组在焦虑和抑郁的自我报告测量中得分高于样本中的其他参与者。这些结果为青少年社交恐惧症亚型的存在提供了实证支持。
