Abstract Extensive research has focused on social anxiety in various contexts of human relationships. However, only a small number of studies have aimed to understand social anxiety in the context of online dating. Therefore, the current study examined factors related to social anxiety among online daters and used Janoff-Bulman's Shattered Assumptions theory (1992) as a theoretical framework. A total of 494 users of online dating sites and applications completed a questionnaire that assessed social anxiety, socio-demographic characteristics, and three general assumptions regarding: the world (world appraisals); the self (self-efficacy); and, others (recognition concerns). Multiple regression analysis was applied in order to identify predictors of social anxiety. Findings revealed that social anxiety among online daters was predicted by negative world appraisals, low self-efficacy and high recognition concerns. The current study underscores the importance of cognitive structures in a vague and vulnerable situation such as online dating. Specifically, taking into account basic appraisals of the world, the self, and others, emerge as important factors when trying to explain social anxiety in the online-dating context. Our findings may assist health care professionals treat individuals searching to find a partner, specifically in directing the therapeutic sessions to rebuild shattered assumptions.

在线约会用户社交焦虑的预测因素

摘要 广泛的研究集中在各种人际关系背景下的社交焦虑。然而,只有少数研究旨在了解在线约会背景下的社交焦虑。因此,当前的研究调查了与在线约会者的社交焦虑相关的因素,并使用 Janoff-Bulman 的破碎假设理论(1992)作为理论框架。共有 494 名在线约会网站和应用程序的用户完成了一份问卷,该问卷评估了社交焦虑、社会人口特征和以下三个一般假设:世界(世界评估);自我(自我效能);以及其他(认可问题)。应用多元回归分析来确定社交焦虑的预测因素。调查结果显示,在线约会者的社交焦虑是由负面的世界评价、低自我效能和高度认可的担忧预测的。当前的研究强调了认知结构在网络约会等模糊和脆弱的情况下的重要性。具体而言,考虑到对世界、自我和他人的基本评价,在试图解释在线约会背景下的社交焦虑时,这些因素成为重要因素。我们的研究结果可能有助于医疗保健专业人员治疗寻求寻找合作伙伴的个人,特别是指导治疗会议重建破碎的假设。考虑到对世界的基本评价,自我和他人在试图解释在线约会背景下的社交焦虑时成为重要因素。我们的研究结果可以帮助医疗保健专业人员治疗寻求寻找合作伙伴的个人,特别是指导治疗会议重建破碎的假设。考虑到对世界的基本评价,自我和他人在试图解释在线约会背景下的社交焦虑时成为重要因素。我们的研究结果可以帮助医疗保健专业人员治疗寻求寻找合作伙伴的个人,特别是指导治疗会议重建破碎的假设。
