Experimental Study on the Relationship between Symptoms of Social Phobia and Social Skills: Comparison of the Ratings of Children, their Mothers and Observers

Abstract

The present study investigated the relationship between objective and subjective ratings of social skills and symptoms of social phobia in children. The sample consisted of 18 children with social phobia or social phobia and other anxiety disorders (7-12 years old) and their mothers. The children participated in a conversation with an unfamiliar adult, and the children's mothers observed their performance. Children and their mothers independently rated their social skills before and after the conversation. Two observers also independently rated the children's social skills. There was a moderate correlation between social phobia symptoms and objective social skills in children. The mothers tended to think that their children exhibited more nervous behaviors than they actually did. There was no significant difference between the mothers' ratings and observers' ratings on nervous behavior in children after the mothers observed their children's performance. The methodological limitations and clinical implications of the present study were discussed.
