Sažetak
The aim of this study was to determine model that would be best able to explain and understand the complex relationship between social anxiety, beliefs about expressing emotions, suppression of emotions, experiencing positive and negative emotions and life satisfaction in general, controlling for depressive symptoms and neuroticism. The study included 521 female students of the University of Rijeka and University of Pula. The model tested made the contribution to the understanding of these relations in the result which demonstrates that social anxiety does not make any direct effects on positive or negative emotions. The role of beliefs about expressing emotions is emphasized and it has been confirmed the mediating role that these beliefs have in relation to social anxiety and emotion suppression. This research provided a detailed insight into the complex relationship between social anxiety, experience of emotions and the quality of life in general, in a way that the structural modeling included some of mediation mechanisms that play a role in this regard.
