在对社交焦虑的评估中，研究者经常区分社交干扰焦虑和表现焦虑。Liebowitz社交焦虑量表（LSAS）是一种由临床医生管理的社交焦虑和回避的测量方法，最初开发时使用了单独的子量表，用于评估涉及社交互动和表现/观察他人的情况下的恐惧和回避。单独的验证性因素分析的LSAS恐惧和回避评级表明，这两个因素的模型没有提供足够的数据拟合，这表明需要进一步调查的LSAS的基本结构。对恐惧和回避等级的单独探索性共同因素分析得出了四个相似的因素：（1）社会互动，（2）公开演讲。(3)观察，由orllcrs进行，以及（4）在公共场合饮食和饮用，这证明了与其他社交焦虑测量的收敛和区分有效性。这些研究结果表明，有四个全球类别的社会恐惧评估的LSAS，而社会交往焦虑似乎是单因素的，恐惧的性能/观察情况可能是多因素的。(C)1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.保留所有权利。
In the assessment of social anxiety, investigators often differentiate between social interactional anxiety and performance anxiety. The Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS), a clinician-administered measure of social anxiety and avoidance, was originally developed with separate subscales for the assessment of fear and avoidance of situations involving social interaction and performance/observarion bq others. Separate confirmatory factor analyses of the LSAS fear and avoidance ratings demonstrated that this two-factor model did not provide an adequate fit to the data, suggesting the need to further investigate the underlying structure of the LSAS. Separate exploratory common factor analyses of the fear and avoidance ratings yielded four similar factors for each: (1) social interaction, (2) public speaking. (3) observation, by orllcrs, and (4) eating and di drinking in public, which demonstrated convergent and discriminant validity with other measures of social anxiety. These findings suggest that there are four global categories of social fear assessed by the LSAS, and that while social interaction anxiety appears to be unifactorial, fear of performance/observation situations may be multifactorial.
