社交恐惧症的特征是在社交或表演环境中极度恐惧，在这种情况下，个人可能会暴露在他人的尴尬或审视之下，这会造成职业、社交和学业上的损害。到目前为止，很少有数据研究社交恐惧症损害与生活质量的关系。在这项调查中，我们研究了在社交恐惧症患者和正常对照组中，人口统计特征、共病和社交能力与生活质量之间的关系。此外，我们还考察了社交恐惧症亚型的影响。结果表明，与无社交恐惧症或非广泛性社交恐惧症的个体相比，广泛性社交恐惧症患者的生活质量显著降低。仅对非广泛性社交恐惧症患者而言，共病会降低生活质量。分层线性回归显示，社交恐惧症的诊断和对社会效能的观察者评分对生活质量分数产生了强烈的独立影响。研究结果从社交焦虑、社交能力和共病对患有社交恐惧症的成年人的生活质量的作用方面进行了讨论。
Social phobia is characterized by extreme fear in social or performance situations in which the individual may be exposed to embarrassment or scrutiny by others, which creates occupational, social and academic impairment. To date, there are few data examining the relationship of social phobia impairments to quality of life. In this investigation, we examined how demographic characteristics, comorbidity, and social competence are related to quality of life among patients with social phobia and normal controls. In addition, we examined the impact of social phobia subtype. Results indicated that individuals with generalized social phobia had significantly impaired quality of life when compared to individuals with no disorder or individuals with nongeneralized social phobia. Comorbid disorders decreased quality of life only for patients with nongeneralized social phobia. Hierarchical linear regression revealed that a diagnosis of social phobia and observer ratings of social effectiveness exerted strong and independent effects on quality of life scores. Results are discussed in terms of the role of social anxiety, social competence, and comorbidity on the quality of life for adults with social phobia.
