虽然许多研究已经建立了害羞和后来的心理困难之间的联系,大多数现存的研究并没有研究害羞随时间的变化与心理困难随时间的变化或可能的环境因素的影响。目前的研究采用多层次建模,同时检查害羞,抑郁症状和孤独的心理困难,压力生活事件之间的时不变和时变的关联在四个波跨1年的社区样本的271个年轻的青少年(51%的男孩;法师= 11.83年在W1)。结果显示显着的时变和时不变的影响时,孤独感作为一个预测害羞。此外,一个显着的相互作用的影响表明,害羞随着时间的推移减少了那些年轻的青少年谁经历了一些紧张的生活事件,突出了一个未充分研究的主持人的风险。总的来说,研究结果对于理解害羞的心理伴随因素以及害羞的病因学模型具有重要意义。
Although numerous studies have established linkages between shyness and later psychological difficulties, most extant research did not examine variation in shyness over time in relation to variation in psychological difficulties over time or possible environmental factors of influence outside of the school context. The current study used multi-level modelling to simultaneously examine time-invariant and time-variant associations between shyness, the psychological difficulties of depressive symptoms and loneliness, and stressful life events at four waves across 1 year in a community sample of 271 young adolescents (51% boys;Mage= 11.83 years at W1). Results revealed significant time-variant and time-invariant effects when loneliness was examined as a predictor of shyness. In addition, a significant interaction effect indicated that shyness decreased over time for those young adolescents who experienced few stressful life events, highlighting an understudied moderator of risk. Overall, findings have important implications for understanding the psychological concomitants of shyness as well as etiological models of shyness.
