title: Social anxiety and social performance: why don't we see more catastrophes?
abstract: This article surveys the recent literature with regard to social phobia and social anxiety as they affect social performance. It suggests that some of the inconsistent findings in this area might be alleviated by the application of Fazey and Hardy's (1988) catastrophe model to ongoing research in the area of social performance.
