Concepts related to the self are an integral feature of contemporary models of social anxiety disorder (SAD). Here, we provide a brief overview of major topics related to the self and SAD. Four issues are addressed: self-schema content, self-referent processing, self-related motives and behavioral strategies, and finally, self-schema characteristics such as structure and clarity. This review document highlights the breadth and complexity of empirical findings regarding the self and self-related cognitive processes in SAD and points to future directions for research. |
