The relations among shyness, boredom, and grade point average were studied with 223 college students during an Interim at Texas Lutheran College. A positive relationship between shyness and boredom was noted for women and an inverse one between boredom and grade point average for men. However, no correlation was found between shyness and grade point average for women or men. As expected, the multiple correlations (.17, .16) were not significant for either group. Further research seems warranted, and several variables are specified for consideration
Anxiety · Boredom · Developmental psychology · Interim · Point (geometry · Psychiatry · Shyness · Mathematics · Mind wandering and attention · Perfectionism, Procrastination, Anxiety Studies · Psychological and Educational Research Studies · Psychology · Social Psychology
