“…A recent study by Rodebaugh (2009) used data from the National Survey of American Life (NSAL; Jackson et al 2004) and the National Comorbidity Survey to show an association between SP and perceived friendship quality. This association was significant above and beyond perceived family relationship quality, all demographic variables, and all available diagnostic variables.…”

Both high-functioning autism (HFA) and social phobia (SP) involve profound social interaction deficits. Although these disorders share some similar symptoms, they are conceptualized as distinct. Because both HFA and SP are defined behaviorally, the degree of overlap between the two disorders may result in misinterpretation of symptoms. However, the deficits in each disorder differ, particularly in areas of social interaction, emotion recognition and expression, and communication. This paper reviews the literature that informs our current understanding of the behavioral overlaps and differences in HFA and SP. The review also addresses the implications of our current knowledge of these two disorders for differential diagnosis, treatment, and future research. Interdisciplinary, developmentally-oriented research may help extend current approaches to HFA and SP.

“…Most individuals experience social fears at some point in their lives, but for those with SAD, these symptoms can have a detrimental impact on academic, career, and general social functioning (Aderka et al, 2012). For instance, individuals with SAD report fewer friendships and lower friendship quality (Rodebaugh, 2009), poorer academic performance (Van Ameringen, Mancini, & Farvolden, 2003), and greater difficulty in aspects of occupational adjustment (e.g., career choice, career entry, and adaptation to work; Bruch, Fallon, & Heimberg, 2003).…”

Evaluation of the Psychometric Properties of Two Short Forms of the Social Interaction Anxiety Scale and the Social Phobia Scale

et al. 2014

The Social Interaction Anxiety Scale and Social Phobia Scale are widely used measures of social anxiety. Using data from individuals with social anxiety disorder (n = 435) and nonanxious controls (n = 86), we assessed the psychometric properties of two independently developed short forms of these scales. Indices of convergent and discriminant validity, diagnostic specificity, sensitivity to treatment, and readability were examined. Comparisons of the two sets of short forms to each other and the original long forms were conducted. Both sets of scales demonstrated adequate internal consistency in the patient sample, showed expected patterns of correlation with measures of related and unrelated constructs, adequately discriminated individuals with social anxiety disorder from those without, and showed decreases in scores over the course of cognitive-behavioral therapy and/or pharmacotherapy. However, some significant differences in scale performance were noted. Implications for the clinical assessment of social anxiety are discussed.

“…INDIVIDUALS WITH SOCIAL ANXIETY DISORDER (SAD) have difficulty developing friendships and other close relationships (e.g., Alden & Taylor, 2004;Chou, Liang, & Sareen, 2011;Rodebaugh, 2009b). These problems appear to begin in initial encounters in that even following brief interactions, others are less willing to engage in subsequent interactions with them than with non-socially anxious controls (e.g., Meleshko & Alden, 1993;Vonken, Alden, Bögels, & Roelofs, 2008).…”
