Before the entire scenario-based role-playing activity begins, all participants will be informed about the psychological causes of shyness or social anxiety, as well as the cognitive distortions they may experience to some extent. This is the first step in the intervention and the first step in cognitive restructuring. Before starting the simulated treatment, theory can help shy individuals recognize their negative and irrational thought patterns, and better identify and cope with their negative automatic thoughts during the treatment process. This can assist shy individuals in developing more positive and self-supportive thinking patterns in the future.
