The study adopted the methods of survey research, and the participants of the study were 1,160 1st and 2nd grade junior high school students from Tainan and Kaohsiung city in Taiwan. The instruments used in this research included social anxiety scales, attachment style scales, and questionnaires concerning parents’ rearing patterns. The data were analyzed for means, standard deviation, one-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, product-moment correlation, and multiple stepwise regression. The main findings of the study are as follows:
1. The junior high school students have middle to low level of social anxiety. They score highest on fear of evaluation and lowest on social avoidance.

3. The junior high school students mainly present secure attachment style.
4. The junior high school female students experience higher social anxiety than the male.
5. In terms of social anxiety, there is no difference regarding the raking of siblings of the junior high school students.
6. The junior high school students of middle social status experience higher audience anxiety and social worry than those of high social status.
7. The junior high school students in incomplete family structure experience higher social worry and fear of evaluation than those in complete family structure.
8. The junior high school students whose fathers adopt indifferent uninvolved parenting experience higher social anxiety than those whose fathers adopt authoritative reciprocal and indulgent permissive parenting. The junior high school students whose mothers adopt indulgent permissive and indifferent uninvolved parenting experience higher social avoidance than those whose mothers adopt authoritative reciprocal parenting.
9. The junior high school students presenting preoccupied and avoidant attachment styles experience higher social anxiety than those presenting secure attachment style.
10. The degree of social anxiety of junior high school students is affected by the interaction between the family structure and mothers’ rearing patterns. The degree of social anxiety of junior high school students is not affected by the interaction between gender and parenting, sibling ranking and parenting as well as between social status and parenting.

12. The more demanding and responsive the junior high school students’ fathers present, the lower audience anxiety and social avoidance the students experience. The more demanding and responsive the junior high school students’ mothers present , the lower social avoidance the students experience.
13. The stronger secure attachment style the junior high school students present, the less social avoidance they experience. The stronger preoccupied and avoidant attachment styles the junior high school students present, the more social anxiety they experience.
14. The preoccupied and avoidant attachment styles can mainly predict the junior high school students’ social anxiety.
Based on these findings, the study further offers some suggestions to parents, teachers, counselors, and further researches.
