Abstract: To explore the relationship between social anxiety, self-control and loneliness of primary school students, a two-wave longitudinal data collection with the time interval of 6 months was conducted. A total of 440 primary school students from Grade 3, 4 and 5 completed a series of questionnaires concerning self-control, loneliness and social anxiety in their classrooms. The results showed that: (1) Self-control T1 had a significant negative effect of predication on loneliness T2; (2) Loneliness T1 had a significant positive effect of predication on social anxiety T2; (3) Loneliness had a longitudinal mediating effect on the relationship between self-control and social anxiety of primary school students. In conclusion, the improvement of self-control ability among primary school students can reduce their loneliness, and the reduction of loneliness can further alleviate their social anxiety.

Key words: primary school students, self-control, loneliness, social anxiety, cross-lagged analysis
