The psychosocial variables were consisted of vulnerability factor which was behavioral inhibition and stress factors which included traumatic experience, peer relationship, parental attitude, and life event stress.

The results showed that behavioral inhibition, stress and interactions of vulnerability and stress all accounted for 53.4% of the variance in social anxiety and 49.9% in intrapersonal anxiety. Particularly interactions of behavioral inhibition with traumatic experience and peer relationships highly affected total social anxiety and interpersonal anxiety in adolescents. Overall, the results supported the vulnerability-stress model and implications for prevention of adolescent social anxiety were discussed.
