我们报告了四项独立的研究，探讨了社会交往焦虑和以威胁维持方式解释积极社会事件的倾向之间的关系。研究一描述了一个量表的发展，衡量积极的社会事件的负面解释，积极事件的解释量表（IPES）。研究2交叉验证了IPES的结构，并建立了社会交往焦虑解释了显着的差异，在消极的解释积极的社会事件超出了一般的负面影响。研究3表明，积极事件的负面解释是显着更大的广泛性社交焦虑障碍（GSAD）患者的临床样本比匹配组的非焦虑社区控制。此外，在GSAD组中，IPES与积极互动后的负面社会预测相关。最后，研究4证实，积极的社会事件的负面解释介导的社会交往焦虑和低积极情感之间的关系。(c)2007爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
We report four independent studies that examined the relationship between social interaction anxiety and the tendency to interpret positive social events in a threat-maintaining manner. Study I described the development of a scale that measures negative interpretations of positive social events, the interpretation of positive events scale (IPES). Study 2 cross-validated the structure of the IPES and established that social interaction anxiety explained significant variance in negative interpretations of positive social events beyond negative affect in general. Study 3 demonstrated that negative interpretation of positive events was significantly greater in a clinical sample of patients with generalized social anxiety disorder (GSAD) than a matched group of non-anxious community controls. In addition, within the GSAD group, the IPES was associated with negative social predictions following a positive interaction. Finally, study 4 confirmed that negative interpretations of positive social events mediated the relationship between social interaction anxiety and low positive affect. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
