目标 研究社交恐惧症患者的完美主义水平,并探讨完美主义对这些人的影响。 设计 组间实验室设计用于在受控环境中提供恐惧症和非恐惧症个体之间的比较水平。 方法 恐惧症组的参与者(N = 28)从治疗计划的等待名单中招募,匹配的对照组(N = 29)从社区广告中招募。参与这项研究的志愿者完成了完美主义的测量(多维完美主义量表),然后完成了一个实验室会议,在这个会议上,他们被要求评价别人对他们的社会标准和他们自己的社会能力。 结果 社交恐惧症的人在社交规定的完美主义上得分更高。在社交恐惧症患者中,完美主义特质与更高的标准相关,但在对照组中则不然。最后,社交恐惧症与社交能力的感知降低有关。 结论 虽然社交恐惧症和社会规定的完美主义是交织在一起的,但这两种情况似乎通过不同的过程促成了消极的自我评价。完美主义的社交恐惧症患者不仅可能有低水平的效能感,而且还觉得其他人在社交场合对他们有很高的期望。
OBJECTIVES To examine levels of perfectionism in social phobics and to explore the consequences of perfectionism for such individuals. DESIGN A between-groups laboratory design was used to provide a level of comparison between phobic and non-phobic individuals in a controlled setting. METHOD Participants for the phobic group (N = 28) were recruited from waiting lists for treatment programmes, and matched controls (N = 29) were recruited from community advertisements. Volunteers for the study completed measures of perfectionism (Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale) and then completed a laboratory session in which they were asked to rate others' social standards for them and their own social ability. RESULTS Social phobic individuals scored higher on socially prescribed perfectionism. Perfectionistic traits were associated with higher standards in social phobics, but not in controls. Finally, social phobia was associated with lowered perceptions of social ability. CONCLUSIONS Although social phobia and socially prescribed perfectionism were intertwined, the two conditions appeared to contribute to negative self-appraisal through different processes. Social phobics who are perfectionistic are likely not only to have low levels of efficacy, but also to feel that others will have high expectations for them in social situations.
