Shyness, Group Dependence and Self-Concept: Attributes of the Imaginary Audience.

Hauck, William E.; And Others

Adolescence, v21 n83 p529-34 Fall 1986

Examined sensitivity to an imaginary audience, shyness, group dependence, and self-concept in 328 adolescents. Found that ninth-graders were higher in group dependence and were more sensitive to an imaginary audience than either seventh or eleventh graders. Subjects highly sensitive to imaginary audiences projected shyness, which increased with age, and low self-concepts. (NB)
