The SIAS contains statements about interacting with authority figures, making eye contact, talking about feelings, mixing with coworkers, making friends, meeting acquaintances, social discomfort, interacting one-on-one, public speaking anxiety, disagreeing with others, talking to attractive persons of the opposite sex, worrying about conversations, interacting with strangers, fear of saying something embarrassing, and worrying about being ignored in groups.
