Multivariate behavioral research often focuses on latent constructs—such as motivation, self-concept, or wellbeing—that cannot be directly observed. Typically, these latent constructs are measured with items in standardized instruments. To test the factorial structure and multidimensionality of latent constructs in educational and psychological research, Morin et al. (2016a) proposed bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling (B-ESEM). This meta-analytic review (158 studies, k = 308, N = 778,624) aimed to estimate the extent to which B-ESEM model fit differs from other model representations, including confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM), hierarchical CFA, hierarchical ESEM, and bifactor-CFA. The study domains included learning and instruction, motivation and emotion, self and identity, depression and wellbeing, and interpersonal relations. The meta-analyzed fit indices were the χ2/df ratio, the comparative fit index (CFI), the Tucker-Lewis index (TLI), the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA), and the standardized root mean squared residual (SRMR). The findings of this meta-analytic review indicate that the B-ESEM model fit is superior to the fit of reference models. Furthermore, the results suggest that model fit is sensitive to sample size, item number, and the number of specific and general factors in a model.

“…In addition, further validation efforts on existing scales have occurred in recent years. For example, a large-scale psychometric investigation provided further validation of the Multidimensional Social Anxiety Response Inventory – 21 (MSARI-21) 47 ; the validity and reliability of the Self-Rated Beliefs in Social Anxiety (SBSA) scale were confirmed in a clinical sample 37 ; an investigation in Brazil provided compelling data that translations of the widely used Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale are valid and reliable tools for assessing social anxiety in global Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking individuals 48 ; and data from large clinical and non-clinical samples confirmed that the computerized adaptive version and static short-form version of the widely utilized Social Interaction Anxiety Scale (SIAS) and Social Phobia Scale (SPS) are as valid and reliable as the original, lengthier versions 49 . Investigations such as these are critical to ensure that we have valid and reliable tools that assess all relevant aspects of social anxiety and do so in a manner that is culturally appropriate and brief for use in busy clinical and research settings.…”

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is characterized by persistent anxiety or avoidance of social situations because of a fear of negative evaluation. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) (typically with an exposure component) is a first-line treatment for social anxiety, but there remains room for improvement with regard to treatment efficacy. Therefore, the field continues to better understand the mechanisms underlying SAD and its common and complex comorbidities in order to develop targeted interventions to improve symptom outcomes. Additionally, efforts are under way to improve the efficacy and accessibility of CBT. This review outlines major advances in understanding and treating SAD in adults over the past roughly 3 years (2019 to early May 2022). Themes are identified and discussed, as are recommendations for future research.

“…Given the widespread nature of the disorder and the negative impacts on individual functioning, SAD has been the focus of attention for clinicians and researchers (Deller et al, 2020). Several instruments have been developed to assess both symptoms that individuals experience and social situations that could exacerbate them, also considering the number of changes in the definition of SAD (Bögels et al, 2010) made in the latest edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM‐5; APA, 2013).…”

Objective The Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale‐Self Report (LSAS‐SR) is a self‐report measure of social anxiety (SA), which has shown adequate psychometric properties across cultures. However, no study has systematically evaluated its measurement invariance (MI) between (a) individuals with and without a diagnosis of social anxiety disorder (SAD) and (b) males and females. The current study addresses this issue. Methods We collected data on 257 (158 females) Italian individuals diagnosed with SAD and 356 (232 females) community‐dwelling adults. Results We initially found support for the unidimensionality of the Italian LSAS‐SR measurement model in all samples. Using the Graded Response Model, we obtained evidence of partial MI and differential item functioning between community‐dwelling and SAD‐diagnosed individuals and evidence of strong MI between male and female participants. Conclusions The results of this study suggest that the Italian LSAS‐SR measures the same trait in the same way across the symptom continuum and sexes, making it a psychometrically sound tool for assessment, screening, and research purposes.
