In this 1990 volume leading international researchers draw upon a
variety of perspectives on the study of shyness and embarrassment,
shame, blushing and self-consciousness. The contributors conceive
of shyness and embarrassment as widely shared everyday experiences
in which the desired routine flow of social interaction is
inhibited by self-consciousness and feelings of discomfort or
foolishness. The dominant position within social psychology - that
these are aspects of social anxiety - is both attacked and
defended. The role of unwelcome self-referential thoughts in the
experience of the social emotions is critically evaluated in terms
of objective self-awareness, social anxiety, and impression
management theories. This engaging volume will appeal to all of
those interested in psychology - particularly in personality
theory, social and clinical psychology, and the study of the self -
and to students and teachers of communication studies and related
disciplines.
