A measure of shyness
Warren H. Jones & Stephen Briggs
A valuable measure for understanding shyness as a unique and separate dimension of personality. This twenty-item measure of social shyness was originally developed as a basic tool for research on personality factors in interpersonal behavior and relationships, but it is also useful in applied settings.
