THE RELATIONSHIP OF FEAR OF NEGATIVE EVALUATION WITH SELF-CONCEPT AND SOCIAL PERCEPTION AMONG ADOLESCENTS

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine which aspects of self-concept and social perception could predict fear of negative evaluation as an aspect of social anxiety among adolescents. The participants were 225 high-school students (105 males and 120 females) from Zagreb. Fear of negative evaluation scale and Rosenberg self-esteem scale were administered. Adolescents also evaluated themselves and their classmates regarding five aspects of adolescent self-concept: school achievement, peer acceptance, self-competence, intelligence, and general physical appearance. Results showed that adolescents' self-evaluations of their intelligence were highest, followed by self-evaluations of peer acceptance. They expected highest peer evaluations of intelligence, and lowest peer evaluations of their physical appearance. Peer evaluations of physical appearance were lowest.
