- Excessive fear of being judged negatively by others.
- Tendency to avoid social or interactive situations.
- Bodily manifestations of anxiety in social situations.
- Excessive worry before social events.
How to interpret your score
Your result reads as an intensity, not a diagnosis:
- Low social anxiety : Your level of social anxiety is low. You are comfortable in most social situations and do not experience significant discomfort in your interactions.
- Moderate social anxiety : You show signs of moderate social anxiety. Certain social situations make you uncomfortable, but you generally manage to face them despite the discomfort.
- High social anxiety : Your social anxiety is significantly elevated. Social interactions represent an important source of distress and you have likely developed avoidance strategies.
- Very high social anxiety : Your level of social anxiety is very high and severely impacts your relational, professional, and personal life. Therapeutic support is strongly recommended.
