This paper explores the role of fear in self-esteem and social anxiety by using the positive and negative evaluation of fear scale, self-esteem scale and social interaction anxiety scale, and conducts a questionnaire survey with a college student as an example. The results show that the positive evaluation fear scale has good reliability and validity in the wood research university students. Positive evaluation of fear and negative evaluation of fear play a partial mediating role between self-esteem and social anxiety. The mediating effect value is 47.17%, that is, self-esteem directly affects social anxiety on the one hand, and fear and positive through negative evaluation on the other hand. Evaluating fear affects social anxiety.
