Shyness is considered as a barrier in developing and maintaining relationships in a healthy manner among adolescent population. The present study was intended to investigate the correlation of public speaking anxiety, self-efficacy with shyess. Shyness Scale (Cheek & Melchior, 1985), Public Speaking Anxiety Scale (McCroskey, 1970), and Self-efficacy Scale (Schwarzer & Jerusalem, 1995) were administered on 109 female adolescents. Results indicate the positive correlation between public speaking and shyness (r= 0.54 ; p > 0.01). Self-efficacy and shyness are found to be negatively correlated (r=-0.38; p > 0.05 ). Results are discussed in discussion.
