Japanese Society of Anxiety and Related Disorders/Japanese Society of Neuropsychopharmacology: Clinical practice guideline for social anxiety disorder The development of clinical practice guidelines for social anxiety disorder began in March 2018 when the Joint Clinical Practice Guideline Development Committee for Anxiety and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders was formed by the Japanese Society of Anxiety and Related Disorders and Japanese Society of Neuropsychopharmacology to jointly develop guidelines for anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Based on the universal concept of evidence-based medicine, three clinical questions (CQs) about pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy were developed for clinical guidelines for social anxiety disorder, panic disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder

Brazilian Psychiatric Association guidelines for the treatment of Social Anxiety Disorder Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is one of the most prevalent anxiety disorders, often not well recognized. In most of the cases, SAD follows an unremitted and chronic course, affecting several areas of the individual functioning (i.e.: relationship, academic, work). Due to its relevance, there is a need for guideline-based treatments for SAD treatment adapted to the Brazilian social and economic reality. A systematic review was produced by our group assessing several treatment modalities for SAD. The Medical Subject Headings term used was Social Anxiety Disorder or Social Phobia. PubMed, Cochrane, Scielo, ClinicalTrials.gov were searched resulting in 438 articles screened, of which 20 were selected

Predicting treatment response to cognitive behavior therapy in social anxiety disorder on the basis of demographics, psychiatric history, and scales: A machine learning approach. Only about half of patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD) respond substantially to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). However, there has been little evidence available to clinicians or patients about whether any scores and responses to individual questions on a severity measure, the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS), was the most informative in achieving the highest predictions that alone accounted for about 26% of the variance in treatment outcome. Demographic information, psychiatric history, personality measures, other self-reported or clinician-reported questionnaires, and clinical scales related

The relationship between personality throughout adolescence and social anxiety disorder in young adulthood. A longitudinal twin study. This study examined the longitudinal relationship between a range of personality related variables measured throughout adolescence, and social anxiety disorder (SAD) in young adulthood. In addition, we examined to what degree the phenotypic associations between

The prevalence of using beta-blockers and its relationship with social anxiety among health profession students at Umm Al-Qura University.

Social anxiety and social networking service addiction proneness among university students: A moderated mediation model of narcissism and gender. This study aims to investigate the mediation effect of narcissism and the mediation effect moderated by gender in the effect of social anxiety on university students' SNS addiction. In this cross-sectional survey, university students, aged 19 to 29 were ). The moderated mediation effect was significant in both male and female groups. The mediation effect of narcissism on the relationship between social anxiety and SNS addiction proneness was stronger in the female group than in the male group. The findings have the potential to provide substantial basic data for developing health promotion and education programs to reduce university students' social anxiety

Association between physical activity and adolescent mental health in the post COVID-19: The chain mediating effect of self-esteem and social anxiety. In order to gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between physical activity and adolescent mental health in the post COVID-19 pandemic era, self-esteem and social anxiety were used as mediating variables to explore the potential activity was significantly and positively associated with mental health; (2) self-esteem and social anxiety played a fully mediating role between physical activity and adolescent mental health respectively; (3) self-esteem and social anxiety played a chain mediating role between physical activity and adolescent mental health. This study reveals the relationship and influencing mechanism between physical

Development of social anxiety cognition scale for college students: Basing on Hofmann's model of social anxiety disorder. To develop the Chinese version of the Social Anxiety Cognition Scale for College Students (SACS-CS) based on Hofmann's model of social anxiety disorder and examine its reliability and validity. Based on literature analysis and structured interviews, a theoretical model factors ranged from 0.87 to 0.96, and the test-retest reliability ranged from 0.76 to 0.84. The scores of the scale and the four factors were significantly correlated with the score of the Interaction Anxiousness Scale ( = 0.54-0.64). The SACS-CS possesses good reliability and validity and can be applied in the cognitive assessment of college students' social anxiety. The scale could help people

A Mobile Application Adjunct to Augment Cognitive-Behavioral Group Therapy for Adolescents with Social Anxiety: Feasibility and Acceptability Results from the Wiring Adolescents with Social Anxiety via Behavioral Interventions Pilot Trial. Cognitive-Behavioral Group Therapy (CBGT) is an established treatment for Social Anxiety (SA). However, diagnostic recovery rate is only 20.5% in CBGT , and up to 50% of patients remain symptomatic posttreatment. Using videocalls to deliver digital CBGT (CBGT) is feasible, cost-effective, and efficacious. Yet, the impact of CBGT on social functioning remains limited, as CBGT does not offer opportunities for monitoring cognition and behavior in social situations. Wiring Adolescents with Social Anxiety via Behavioral Interventions (WASABI), a clinician

Shared and distinct morphometric similarity network abnormalities in generalized anxiety disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder and social anxiety disorder. The high comorbidity and symptom overlap of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and social anxiety disorder (SAD), has led to the study of their shared and disorder-specific neural substrates. However

Autism spectrum disorder, social anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders: beyond the comorbidity. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by high rates of comorbidity with other mental disorders, including anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Beyond a mere concept of comorbidity, recent literature is speculating the existence of a neurodevelopmental nature of such mental disorders. The aim of the study is to investigate the distribution of social-phobic, obsessive-compulsive and panic-agoraphobic traits within a sample of individuals with ASD, social anxiety disorder (SAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and panic disorder (PD). 40 participants with ASD, 40 with SAD, 40 with OCD, 40 with PD and 50 HC were assessed with the Social Anxiety Spectrum-Short

Active Components in Internet-Based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Social Anxiety Disorder: A Randomized Full Factorial Trial. Many studies have demonstrated that social anxiety disorder (SAD) can be effectively treated with psychotherapy, particularly cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), including internet-based CBT (ICBT). Despite evidence-based treatments, many individuals do

Exploring the role of post-error processing in social anxiety across age. Error monitoring, a neurocognitive process reflecting self-detection of errors, has been proposed as a marker of social anxiety. However, the way in which this marker relates to social anxiety is not consistent across age, as older children and adolescents with anxiety exhibit heightened error monitoring and younger children with anxiety exhibit diminished error monitoring. One way to contextualize this inconsistency and provide insight into childhood social anxiety is to examine the less-studied consequences of error monitoring, termed post-error processing. We employed computational modeling to estimate a form of post-error processing (attentional focusing) during a flanker task, within a cross-sectional sample

Generalization Between Perceptually Similar Stimuli Is Associated With Improvement in Social Anxiety Following Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorders requires that people learn to inhibit their fear during exposure to stimuli that no longer pose a threat. We investigate whether individual differences in this inhibitory learning ability, measured prior to treatment, can predict responsiveness to CBT for social anxiety disorder. Participants (N = 128) were randomized to CBT or a wait-list control and completed tests of fear generalization and extinction prior to and following the intervention period. Contrary to expectations, individual differences in extinction, measured at pretreatment, were not associated with treatment responses

Latent profiles of coping styles and their associations with non-suicidal self-injury in adolescents with social anxiety disorder. Adolescents aged 12-18 with social anxiety disorder (SAD) manifest various emotional and behavioral problems, among which non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) requires urgent attention. Coping mechanisms for psychological distress significantly impact their vulnerability

The effects of training female students in emotion regulation techniques on their social problem-solving skills and social anxiety: a randomized controlled trial. Social anxiety is one of the most prevalent anxiety-related disorders among adolescents with many adverse effects on the social and academic lives of this population. In addition, poor social problem-solving skills can aggravate regulation techniques on their social problem-solving skills and social anxiety. This study was a randomized controlled trial conducted in Iran, utilizing a pretest-posttest design with control and intervention groups. The subjects were 47 female high-school second graders who were randomly divided into a control (25 students) and an intervention group (22 students). The intervention group was collectively

Atypical subcortical involvement in emotional face processing in major depressive disorder with and without comorbid social anxiety. Previous research on major depressive disorder (MDD) has largely focused on cognitive biases and abnormalities in cortico-limbic circuitry during emotional face processing. However, it remains unclear whether these abnormalities start at early perceptual stages via subcortical pathways and how comorbid social anxiety influences this process. Here, we investigated subcortical mechanisms in emotional face processing using a psychophysical method that measures monocular advantage (i.e., superior discrimination performance when two stimuli are presented to the same eye than to different eyes). Participants included clinical patients diagnosed with MDD (n = 32), patients

Subgroups based on fears of evaluation exhibited different social anxiety levels. The bivalent fear of evaluation model proposes that fear of negative evaluation (FNE) and fear of positive evaluation (FPE) are distinct but related constructs, and that social anxiety arises when they are elevated. This represents a variable-centered perspective. However, a recent review suggested that individuals of social anxiety were further examined. Results demonstrated that participants could be classified into four groups: (1) high bivalent fears of evaluation group, (2) high FNE group, (3) high FPE group, and (4) low fears of evaluation group. Importantly, significant differences in social anxiety levels were found among these groups. Our findings extend the bivalent fear of evaluation model to a person
