Based on the social anxiety disorder model, this study explores the relationship among college
students’ social anxiety, explicit self-esteem and implicit self-esteem in the new era.It provides theoretical
and empirical basis for the current situation of college students’ social anxiety in the new era. The results
show that among college students, the social anxiety of boys is significantly lower than that of girls, and
the social anxiety and explicit self-esteem of only children are significantly lower than those of non-only
children. However, college students’ implicit self-esteem tends to be positive, and the implicit self-esteem
effect generally exists among college students. The research shows that there is a significant negative
correlation between college students’ social anxiety and explicit self-esteem, and a significant positive
correlation between social anxiety and implicit self-esteem.
