Social anxiety and physiological arousal during computer mediated vs. face to face communication

作者:

Highlights:

• We evaluated socially anxiety in computer mediated vs. face to face communication.

• An experimental interaction task used subjective and physiological measures.

• Both CMC and FTF produced similar increases in physiological arousal.

• Subjective anxiety and arousal were lower in CMC than in FTF.

• The socially anxious perceived themselves as more successful in CMC compared to FTF.
