****Apologies for Cross Posting**** Hello list members. I am emailing to resend the survey on Impostor Phenomenon. Sadly, due to a technological issue I’ve lost all the data from the previous survey. If you are in a management or administrative role in your institution please follow the link to the survey, https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2V5WX8K . My original email is below and offers more explanation. Thank you for your time and patience. ________________________________________ Beth Martin Head Librarian of Professional Programs & Economics Department Liaison Librarian GVSU Libraries DEV 132A, Steelcase Library 401 W.

Imposter Phenomenon (IP), also known as Imposter Syndrome, has been a popular topic in higher education for over 30 years. The idea comes from two psychologists, Dr. Pauline Rose Clance and Dr. Suzanne Ament Imes, both of whom noticed reoccurring anxieties among successful women/men in managerial roles. The idea behind IP is that no matter how hard one works, or how successful one becomes, the individual feels like a fraud. At any moment they will be “found out” by supervisors that they are not as “good”, “intelligent”, or “successful” as they appear to be. They feel as if their success was by chance or by luck and not from their own abilities. There is no known or expected risk, threat, or harm to either potential project participants or project participants or others. The short survey should take approximately 15-25 minutes to complete. A portion of this survey contains the Clance Impostor Phenomenon Scale (CIPS) with permission of the author (see permission statement below).
