Shyness and Children's Emotionality, Regulation, and Coping: Contemporaneous, Longitudinal, and Across-Context Relations.
Eisenberg, Nancy; Shepard, Stephanie A.; Fabes, Richard A.; Murphy, Bridget C.; Guthrie, Ivanna K.
Child Development, v69 n3 p767-90 Jun 1998
Examined the relations of teachers' and parents' reports of children's shyness at ages 6-8, 8-10, and 10-12 years to dispositional regulation, emotionality, and coping. The overall pattern of findings was partially consistent with the conclusion that parent-rated shyness reflected primarily social wariness with unfamiliar people, whereas teacher-rated shyness tapped social inhibition due to social evaluative concerns.
