The present study reports effects of shyness on various areas of adjustment of high school students. 240 subjects were selected through Stratified Random sampling from the 8th, 9th, and 1Oth standards, from two High schools of Mysore city, India. Out of the 240 subjects, 145 were boys and 98 were girls. They were assessed using Shyness Questionnaire (Crozier, 1995 and Bells Adjustment Inventory (Bell, 1970). Results revealed that shyness has no differential effect on home and health adjustment, however, there is a significant linear increase in the social, emotional and total maladjustment with the increase in the level of shyness i.e., higher the shyness higher the maladjustment in social and emotional adjustment of the students.
