This volume is about shyness: its definitions and conceptualization
as a psy chological construct, research on its causes and
consequences, methods for meas uring shyness, strategies for
alleviating the unpleasant experiences associated with shyness, and
its connection to other forms of social anxiety and inhibition. the
book together was to provide a resource for The principal goal in
putting psychologists from several subdisciplines, most notably
social, personality, clin ical, and development13-l psychology, in
addition to social scientists from other disciplines. We do riot
assume that these chapters, considered collectively or
individually, provide answers to every conceivable issue with
respect to shyness. Rather, we hope that the book will serve to
integrate what is known about shyness on the basis of current
research and theorizing and to provide both directions and impetus
for continued research, theoretical evolution, and improved
techniques of assessment and intervention. But one might ask, why
another book on shyness? In particular, why a book at this time
given the recent appearance of other books on the topic and in view
of the extensive literature on related topics such as introversion
and anxiety-topics that would seem to compete with shyness for the
same concep tual space? Our decision to edit this volume was
prompted by several consid erations, some practical, others more
substantive in nature."
