Social anxiety disorder is a common adolescent anxiety disorder with rates ranging from 9.1% to 44%between countries around the world. In Vietnam, research on this disorder is quite limited. Socialphobia affects many aspects of life, such as school, work, and increases the risk of depression andsuicide in adults. However, finding treatment, the recovery rate is still quite low. So early screeningfor this disorder is necessary. The study conducted on 430 students participating in the study, theprevalence of phobias on the LSAS scale was 42.3%. 35.7% and 37.4% respectively. Multivariateanalysis showed a statistically significant relationship between social phobia and factors such aslack of confidence in appearance, mother’s occupation (p <0.05). Research has given a numberof recommendations for early detection and timely intervention solutions towards comprehensivehealth care for students

Background: Both selective mutism (SM) and social anxiety disorder (SAD) are severe pediatric anxiety disorders with the common trait of behavioral inhibition (BI). The underlying pathophysiology of these disorders remains poorly understood, however converging evidence suggests that alterations in several peripheral molecular pathways might be involved. In a pilot study, we investigated alterations in plasma molecular markers (dipeptidyl peptidase-4 [DPPIV], interleukin-6 [IL-6], tumor necrosis factor-β [TNF-β] and neuropeptide-Y [NPY]) in children with SM, SAD, and healthy controls, as well as the correlation of these markers to symptom severity.Methods: We included 51 children and adolescents (aged 5–18 years; n = 29 girls): n = 20 children in the SM-, n = 16 in the SAD- and n = 15 in the control-group (CG). Peripheral blood samples were analyzed for DPPIV, IL-6, TNF-β, and NPY concentrations. Diverse psychometric measures were used for BI, anxiety, and mutism symptoms.Results: Lower DPPIV-levels were correlated with more anxiety symptoms. However, we could not find a difference in any molecular marker between the patients with SAD and SM in comparison to the CG.Conclusion: DPPIV is proposed as relevant marker for child and adolescent anxiety. Investigating the pathophysiology of SM and SAD focusing on state and trait variables as anxiety or BI might help better understanding the underlying mechanisms of these disorders. Further studies with especially larger cohorts are needed to validate the current pilot-findings.

Introduction: As per research studies have shown that social anxiety disorder has a worldwide prevalence of 5 to 10% and a lifetime prevalence rate of 8.4% to 15% among high school students.1 Rural Indian children are facing this problem of lethal evil more as compared to Urban high school students in India. Objective: To assess the prevalence of social anxiety disorder [sad] and its determinants among high school students of selected high school of Bagalakote. Methods: Descriptive survey approach was used for the study with cross sectional survey design. 120 high school students between 14 years to 16 years of age were selected Disproportionate stratified random sampling technique method from high school students studying in selected high school of Bagalkot. The data regarding determinants was collected by structured interview schedule and self-report method. The Social Phobia Inventory (abbreviated as SPIN) is a five point scale was used to categories the high school students according to their social anxiety disorders. The association was explored by Chi square test, Fisher’s exact probability test and linear regression. Results: Total 120 high school students were responded for Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN) scale, in that level of social anxiety disorders had reveals that majority 83.3% had non phobic, 15.8% had mild and 0.8% had moderate, there is no extremely phobic. A significant association was found between the social anxiety disorders of adolescents and their selected socio-demographic variables like monthly income (χ2= 21.199; P<0.05). Conclusion: The findings revealed that there was a positive correlation found between the psychological wellbeing and academic performance among adolescents, recommended health education, early recommended understanding the social anxiety disorder and its determinants by their students especially among the fresher`s. Effectiveness of teaching programmes regarding impact of its determinants on level of social anxiety disorders among adolescents can be done had positive effect on adolescents health, which were also statistically significant. Key words: Social anxiety disorder, Determinants, Adolescents, high school students, academic performance, Spin scale.
