Concept information

Preferred term

social and communicative anxiety  

Definition(s)

  • Social anxiety refers to psychological distress experienced in reaction to the mere presence of people, whereas the term communicative anxiety is used to describe the fear associated with either real or anticipated communication with others. It should be fairly obvious that communication scholars would focus most of their attention on anxiety associated with communication.
