 ionships among Childhood Maltreatment\, Fears of Evaluation\, and Associat
 ed Submissive Behaviors on 06/21/2023 at 11:00 AM in Virtual https://tenne

 er risk for engaging in maladaptive social avoidance. Social avoidance ten
 dencies associated with history of child maltreatment has been linked\, in
  part\, to fears of evaluation\, which are commonly associated with negati
 ve affective states such as shame. Negative affect-driven social avoidance
  may be operationalized by self-reported experience\, biopsychological res
 ponses\, and socially submissive behaviors (e.g.\, eye gaze avoidance). De
 spite a strong body of research reliably identifying associations among th
 ese constructs\, the literature is lacking in establishing the exact relat
 ionships among childhood maltreatment\, fears of evaluation (e.g.\, fear o
 f negative evaluation\; fear of positive evaluation) and shame. The purpos
 e of this study will be to test the roles of trait and state shame as a pu
 tative mechanism in the relationship between childhood maltreatment severi
 ty and several units of analysis of social evaluation-related distress and
  submissive behavior. Across Study 1 (i.e.\, self-report on an Internet su
 rvey battery) and Study 2 (i.e.\, laboratory and Internet self-report asse
 ssments) it is hypothesized that: (1) Overall childhood maltreatment sever
 ity will positively correlate with fear of negative evaluation (FNE)\; (2)
  Overall childhood maltreatment severity will positively correlate with fe
 ar of positive evaluation (FPE). For Study 2 only\, it is hypothesized tha
 t: (3) averages of self-reported state shame\, in response to negative eva
 luative feedback videos\, will positively correlate with trait fear of neg
 ative evaluation (FNE)\; (4) trait shame will significantly moderate the r
 elationship between childhood maltreatment severity and (4a) trait fear of
  negative evaluation (FNE)\, (4b) trait fear of positive evaluation (FPE)\
 , and (5) state social submissive behavior (i.e.\, reduced eye gaze fixati
 on via eye tracking) in response to (5a) negative and (5b) positive evalua
 tive feedback videos.
