Children with social anxiety disorder struggle with excessive self-consciousness that goes beyond common shyness. Kids with social anxiety disorder worry so much about being judged negatively by others that they stop doing the things that they need (and want) to do for fear of embarrassing themselves. Social anxiety disorder mostly affects adolescents, although it can also begin in childhood. Undiagnosed and untreated, it can lead to isolation and depression. There are two main types of social anxiety disorder. The first focuses on performance, with kids worrying about things like speaking in public or trying out for a team. The second type involves social situations in general — not just situations when a child is in the spotlight. Kids with this type of social anxiety may fear things like going to school, eating in public, using public restrooms, meeting new people and even having conversations. Most people with more general social anxiety also experience anxiety about performing. Social anxiety disorder is more common in children who have a first-degree relative with the disorder. There seems to be a genetic component to this as well as an environmental component, such as socially anxious modeling by parents. Some children also have different traits that predispose them to developing social anxiety disorder, such as behavioral inhibition or fear of negative evaluation. This information can be published in our peer reviewed journal with impact factors and are calculated using citations not only from research articles but also review articles (which tend to receive more citations), editorials, letters, meeting abstracts, short communications, and case reports. The inclusion of these publications provides the opportunity for editors and publishers to manipulate the ratio used to calculate the impact factor and try to increase their number rapidly. Impact factor plays a major role for the particular journal. Journal with higher impact factor is considered to be more important than other ones.
