本研究的目的是比较黎巴嫩和英国年轻人的社交焦虑症状的频率，并调查社交焦虑、自我焦虑和感知的社会规范之间的关系。共有680名17至29岁的年轻人（312名来自黎巴嫩，368名来自英国）接受了检查。所有参与者都完成了用于测量社交焦虑症状，自我意识和对社会规范的反应的问卷。黎巴嫩年轻人在独立和相互依存的自我意识方面的得分高于英国参与者。与参与者相比，黎巴嫩参与者表现出更大的接受注意寻求行为。虽然独立的自我认知与社交焦虑呈负相关的两个样本，文化规范与社交焦虑呈负相关，只有英国的样本。在英国样本中，独立/相互依赖的自我意识与文化规范/价值观之间的相关性较高。
The purpose of the study was to compare the frequency of social anxiety symptoms among young adults in Lebanon and young adults in the UK and to investigate the relationship between social anxiety, self-construals, and perceived social norms. A total of 680 young adults (312 from Lebanon and 368 from the UK) between the ages of 17 and 29 years were examined. All participants completed questionnaires used to measure social anxiety symptoms, self-construals, and reactions to perceived social norms. Lebanese young adults scored higher than UK participants on independent and interdependent self-construals. Compared to participants, Lebanese participants showed a greater acceptance of attention seeking behaviors. Though independent self-construal was negatively correlated with social interaction anxiety for both samples, cultural norms were negatively correlated with social anxiety only for the UK sample. The correlation between independent/interdependent self-construals and cultural norms/values was higher in the UK sample.
