Cognitive processes in social phobia
Abstract
Social phobics, anxious controls and non-patient controls took part in a brief videotaped conversation with a stooge in order to investigate the cognitive model of social phobia. Thoughts, behaviour, and attention during the conversation were assessed. Compared to the control groups, social phobics had more negative self-evaluative thoughts, performed less well, and systematically underestimated their performance. There were no differences in attention between the three groups. Content analysis of thought sampling data from the conversation, and from three hypothetical situations, revealed that few of the negative thoughts reported by social phobics explicitly mentioned evaluation by other people. This suggests that social phobics may not closely monitor other people's responses in social situations and hence that their thoughts are not data driven. The results are discussed in relation to the cognitive model of social phobia and suggestions are made for improvements in the treatment of social phobia.

Individuals with SAD appraise their social skills more negatively.
“There is greater consensus regarding the importance of perceived social skills insofar as individuals with SAD appraise their social skills more negatively (Alden and Wallace, 1991; Rapee and Lim, 1992; Stopa and Clark, 1993).”

Current research does not support the presence of social skills deficits in SAD but instead highlights that social performance abilities play a minimal role in many anxiety disorders.
“Paradoxically, current research does not support the presence of social skills deficits in SAD but instead highlights that social performance abilities play a minimal role in many anxiety disorders (Clark and Arkowitz, 1975; Halford and Foddy, 1982; Rapee and Lim, 1992; Stopa and Clark, 1993).”

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.
