Abstract

Social anxiety disorder is an important cause of psychosocial morbidity in adolescents and young adults. Problems in adolescents and young adults with social anxiety disorder would be a topic in recent years in campus mental health. We examined the opinion of social anxiety disorder on university students. We found that many students felt anxiety in various social scenes, and some students were worried about their anxiety. Most of the students understood the importance of mental treatment for social anxiety disorder. Several studies reported that social anxiety disorder would be risk factors of subsequent mood disorders, and the age of onset of social anxiety disorder predicted subsequent depression. Our study suggested that further efforts aim to proffer the information of social anxiety disorder and to improve mental health services.
