This study attempted to develop the Korean version of the SAD(K-SAD) and the FNE (K-FNE), which are most widely used among the social phobia sacles, and to investigate the psychometric properties of them. The scales were administered to 433 college students, 189 normal controls and 33 social phobic patients. The results showed that the K-SAD and K-FNE have high internal consistency, temporal stability, and item-total correlation coefficients. The difference of the means between three groups were significant. And the scales correlated with cognitive symptoms higher than somatic symptoms of anxiety. Factor analysis suggested that K-SAD has two factors and K-FNE has single factor structure. Finally, we discussed the cut-off scores for diagnosis and subject screening.
