that you need to work on most. At the beginning of chapter 4, we will suggest additional 
questions that will help you to develop a treatment plan.
WHICH SOCIAL SITUATIONS DO YOU FEAR AND AVOID?
For each of the following situations (divided into interpersonal situations and per -
formance situations, as deﬁned in chapter 1), record a number ranging from 0 to 100 to 
rate (1) the extent to which you fear the situation during a typical or average encounter 
and (2) the extent to which you typically avoid the situation. For example, if you have an 
intense fear of making presentations but you avoid the situation only about half the time, 
your fear rating might be an 80 and your avoidance rating might be a 50. If the situation 
is one that you never encounter, base your ratings on how fearful you imagine  you would 
be in the situation and how much you would avoid the situation if it did come up from 
time to time. Use the following scales to rate your fear and avoidance levels.
