Normality assumption n=48

From my understanding, more important than normally distributed variables (prior to modelling) is the normality of model residuals (evaluated from a Q-Q plot, for example) after your model has been ...

Does shapiro.test() automatically work out residuals on your data?

No, nor should it. Residuals only exist once you've defined a model that makes predictions, so you first have to define a such a model, probably a linear regression if you're interested in normal ...
