Correlation of Shyness and Self-Esteem for Elementary School Children.

Lazarus, Philip J.

Perceptual and Motor Skills, v55 n1 p8-10 Aug 1982

Ninety-eight children identified as shy, based on their self-perceptions and specific criteria related to shyness, were administered a self-esteem inventory and self-report measures of shyness. A significant correlation between shyness and self-esteem scores indicated that shyness is related to low self-esteem. (Author/CM)
