College students are exposed to a broad array of social interaction and social performance. During college years, socially anxious students experience various difficulties while transiting from adolescence to adulthood. Fueled by the importance of social anxiety level in adulthood adjustment, the present study explored attachment style and gender differences in a sample of college students with an emphasis on the perceived level of social anxiety. The results revealed that there were significant differences in the perceived levels of social anxieties(social interactive anxiety, social phobia, presentation anxiety) according to differential adult attachment style. Post hoc analyses showed that (1) secure students were less anxious than dismissing, preoccupied, and fearful students in social interaction and that (2) secure students reported lower levels of anxiety than preoccupied and fearful students on social phobia, and presentation anxiety. Interestingly, gender differences were found only in presentation anxiety in that female students reported higher levels of presentation anxiety compared to male students. Adult attachment style and gender did not interact in all of three social anxieties. The current findings suggest that in exploring social anxiety, individual differences such as adult attachment style and gender should be fully considered.
