Much of the conventional wisdom about the impostor phenomenon is driven by intuitive, common-sense based recommendations about how to cope with and conquer impostor feelings. Unfortunately, much of this discourse is neither rooted in nor informed by empirical research. There are many important theoretical and methodological questions regarding the impostor phenomenon that remain unanswered, such as whether the impostor phenomenon is a personality trait at the core of one's identity, or merely a predisposition triggered by circumstances or fears of being evaluated.
This book describes the theoretical underpinnings of the impostor phenomenon along with common measurement issues, implications for mental health and achievement, its relative prevalence among various population groups, and practical applications of the concept in psychotherapy and mental health treatment more broadly.
Kevin Cokley, PhD, is the University Diversity and Social Transformation professor and professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, where he serves as Associate Chair of Diversity Initiatives for the Department of Psychology. He studies the psychosocial experiences of African American students and students of color and is currently exploring the impostor phenomenon and its relationship to mental health and academic outcomes. He is the author of the 2014 book The Myth of Black Anti-Intellectualism and editor of the 2021 book Making Black Lives Matter: Confronting Anti-Black Racism.
