Fear of success was assessed for 61 fifth-, seventh-, and ninth-grade children using Horner's and Baruch's "fantasy" measures and a behavioral measure developed by the authors. Males and females did not differ significantly on fear of success as measured by the fantasy technique. Developmentally, male fear of success remained unchanged in the three grades tested, while female fear of success decreased from grade 5 to grade 7. The behavioral measure of fear of success tapped a drop in achievement striving in grade 7 for the female subjects. Results are discussed in light of a "situational" versus personality theory of the development of fear of success.
使用霍纳和巴鲁克的“幻想”测量方法以及作者开发的一种行为测量方法，对61名五年级、七年级和九年级的儿童进行了成功恐惧评估。通过幻想技术测量，男性和女性在成功恐惧方面没有显著差异。从发展角度来看，在测试的三个年级中，男性的成功恐惧保持不变，而女性的成功恐惧从五年级到七年级有所下降。成功恐惧的行为测量表明，七年级的女性受试者在成就追求方面有所下降。根据成功恐惧发展的“情境”与个性理论对结果进行了讨论。
