The Relationships between Social Anxiety and Social Capital: Double-Mediating Effects of Online-Offline Self-discrepancy and Communication Competence

Abstract

The present study aims to investigate the dual mediating effects of online-offline self-discrepancy and communication competence in relationship between social anxiety and social capital for adolescents. A total of 316 students participated and completed the Social Anxiety and Distress Scale, Self-Discrepancy Scale modified for measuring online and offline self-presentation, Communication Competence Scale, and Social Capital Scale, along with a consent form three times. Structural equation modelling was used to compare the fit of the research and alternative models, and found that the research model as the best model for the present data. Results showed that social anxiety had directly a effect on social capital and indirectly a effect on social capital via online-offline self-discrepancy, which also functions as a mediator between social anxiety and communication competence, and communication competence, which also functions as a mediator between on-offline self-discrepancy and social capital. Limitations, future research and therapeutic implications were discussed.
