Abstract

Background

Interpretation bias (IB), pre- and post-event rumination are related to adolescent social anxiety (SA). However, although postulated theoretically, the mediating role of pre- and post-event rumination between IB and SA has not been examined in adolescents. In addition, post-event rumination was found to differ in varying social situations (e.g., speech vs. interaction). Therefore, by establishing social tasks, the current research investigated whether: (i) pre- and post-event rumination mediated the association between IB and SA among adolescents, and (ii) this mediation was moderated by situational type.

Methods

In Study 1, 31 socially anxious adolescents and 37 controls were recruited and then primed with a speech task. In Study 2, 61 socially anxious adolescents were randomly assigned to a speech (n = 31) or interaction (n = 30) task. In both studies, baseline IB and SA, state pre-event rumination before starting the social task, post-event rumination and SA after social task were measured.

Results

IB affected adolescents’ SA via pre- and post-event rumination; however, the mediation effect was found only in the speech task.

Conclusions

Findings provide potential approaches for reducing adolescent SA by targeting IB and rumination and showed the situational adaptability of the cognitive model of social anxiety disorder among adolescents.

The same participants as in Study 1.

We aimed to investigate the situational effect of social tasks; hence, a between-subjects design, rather than a common counterbalance within-subjects design across two social tasks, was adopted in Study 2.

Combined with the findings from Study 1, as the significant situation difference existed in the post-event rumination right after the task (PEPI_T_R2), therefore, we again examined the mediation model, i.e., SocNeg—PEPI_T_T1—PEPI_T_T2—SA_T3. Results, however, showed that none of the mediation paths were significant (β1β6 = 0.002, p = .86, 95%CI = − 0.07 ~ 0.07; β5β3 = − 0.02, p = .44, 95%CI = − 0.09 ~ 0.04; β1β2β3 = 0.006, p = .78, 95%CI = − 0.08 ~ 0.13). A possible explanation is that all participants in the current study were socially anxious adolescents, so their homogeneity narrowed the distribution of SA scores and reduced the standard deviation, which may have affected the significance of the path coefficients of this complex mediation model. Therefore, in the following processes two moderated mediation models were separately conducted.
