本研究评估了自我呈现理论中几个变量对自我报告的害羞的影响。数据收集自286名加拿大大学生，他们完成了害羞、拒绝期望、人际交往能力和完美主义的测量。样本被随机分成两半，以进行交叉验证。与假设一致，害羞的预测，拒绝和人际交往能力的初始样本的期望。然而，与自我表现理论相反，高的自我标准和他人对自我的高期望并不能预测害羞。这些发现在交叉验证样本中得到了重复。结果部分支持害羞的自我介绍理论，并建议，而人际交往能力和害怕拒绝是害羞的核心，害羞不一定为自己持有不切实际的高标准，或认为别人期待他们的完美。
This study assessed the impact of several variables central to self-presentation theories on self-reported shyness. Data were collected from 286 Canadian college students who completed measures of shyness, expectations of rejection, interpersonal competence, and perfectionism. The sample was randomly divided in half to allow for cross-validation. Consistent with hypotheses, shyness was predicted by expectations of rejection and interpersonal competence for the initial sample. However, contrary to self-presentation theories, shyness was not predicted by high self-standards nor by perceptions that others held high expectations of the self. These findings were replicated in the cross-validation sample. Results partially support self-presentation theories of shyness and suggest that while interpersonal competence and fear of rejection are central to shyness, the shy do not necessarily hold unrealistically high standards for themselves or view others as expecting perfection from them.
