- Abstract
This research paper aims to reveal the intricate relationship between social anxiety and maladaptive schemas as delineated by Young. Specifically, it delves into the association that exists between the degree of social anxiety and 18 distinct maladaptive schemas which are grouped into five domains. The empirical findings from this research highlight the presence of a significant correlation between elevated levels of social anxiety and the negativity/pessimism schema, as well as the overvigilance/inhibition domain. Furthermore, this study establishes a statistically significant relationship between the increased levels of social anxiety and the defectiveness/shame schema. Individuals with high levels of social anxiety scored high/average on the Young's Schemas Questionnaire. By using the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale, it became feasible to identify the situations and interactions that are closely linked to elevated social anxiety levels. The study revealed that social scenarios characterized by formal interactions, such as public speaking or self-presentation in front of an audience, were the most anxietyinducing experiences for the surveyed participants.
