Social anxiety in childhood: Bridging developmental and clinical perspectives
Open accessAbstract
In this introductory chapter, guided by developmental psychopathology and developmental science as overarching integrative theoretical frameworks, the authors define three constructs related to social anxiety in childhood (behavioral inhibition, anxious solitude/withdrawal, and social anxiety disorder) and analyze commonalities and differences in the content and assessment of these constructs. They then highlight controversies between developmental and clinical approaches to the definition of these constructs, the role of biology in social anxiety, age of onset of social anxiety, information processing biases in social anxiety, heterogeneity in the social and emotional adjustment of socially anxious children, and targets of intervention for childhood social anxiety.

Childhood anxious solitude/withdrawal (AS) predicts social anxiety disorder symptoms (SAS) in childhood and adolescence.
“Childhood anxious solitude/withdrawal (AS) predicts social anxiety disorder symptoms (SAS) in childhood and adolescence.”
From Co-Development of Anxious Solitude and Social Anxiety Symptoms from Middle Childhood Through Early Adolescence: Increased Transactions After the Middle School Transition (2026) · cites this paper as [21]
The “Linkages Between Anxious Solitude/Withdrawal and Social Anxiety Disorder” section says researchers have assumed that anxious solitary/withdrawn children are at risk for social anxiety disorder. The “Age of Onset” section discusses possible continuity of childhood social anxiety into adolescence, but the paper does not establish that childhood anxious solitude/withdrawal predicts disorder symptoms in both childhood and adolescence.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
