Abstract

The purpose of this study was to empirically examine the relationship between social anxiety and interpersonal communication skills in college students. Social anxiety is understood as an excessive fear of negative evaluation in social situations, while interpersonal communication is an individual's ability to convey and receive messages effectively in face-to-face interactions. This study was a quantitative study with a purposive sampling technique. The subjects were 100 college students. Data collection in this study used the social anxiety scale from the SIAS (Social Interaction Anxiety Scale) and interpersonal communication scale which is based on the following aspects: openness, empathy, supportive attitude, positive attitude and equality. Hypothesis testing was conducted using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) analysis technique using AMOS software version 26. Based on the results of the data analysis, it can be concluded that there is a significant role between interpersonal. communication and social anxiety with a value of β = -0.512 and p = 0.000. This indicates that the higher a student's social anxiety, the lower their interpersonal communication skills. This finding emphasizes the importance of psychological interventions to reduce social anxiety in order to improve the quality of student communication in the academic environment.
