 note = {The Systematic Treatment Selection (STS) assessment system guides clinicians to 
examine individual dispositional factors (characteristics) and matching interventions that 
enhance outcome of psychotherapy. This study examined the central characteristics of 
chronic social anxiety individuals and their role in a positive treatment outcome 
following STS. Participants (N=121) were consecutively admitted individuals with 
chronic social anxiety who sought treatment at the shyness clinic, Palo Alto, California. 
The participants took the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) 2, the 
Personality Feelings Questionnaire (PFQ), and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) II 
after completing their intake sessions. The scores of BDI II were used as outcome 
measures. Results demonstrated all of the STS predictor variables were significantly and 
positively (p<.001) correlated with one another, a finding that contrasts with the past STS 
studies.  The results also provided the effectiveness of using an approach, called “Social 
Fitness Training”, which combined cognitive and insight oriented interventions.  The 
effectiveness of the approach, as hypothesized, was moderated by patients’ coping styles. 
The strength of the patients’ internalizing coping styles and feelings of shame/guilt 
require further study in Asian Cultures since Asians tend to score high on these 
dimensions.},
