Abstract

Using a measure derived from Horner's studies of 'fear of success', the attitudes of three groups of British undergraduates towards success and failure were investigated. The results indicate ambivalence towards success and failure among both sexes, but neither the numerical analysis nor the kinds of responses indicated much of the overt sex-stereotype-based 'fear of success' found in the earlier American studies. Both sexes indicated some disillusionment with the 'success ethic'. Males showed somewhat greater anxiety about failure.

摘要

利用从霍纳对“害怕成功”的研究中得出的一种测量方法，对三组英国本科生对成功和失败的态度进行了调查。结果表明，两性对成功和失败都存在矛盾心理，但无论是数值分析还是回答类型，都没有显示出早期美国研究中发现的基于明显性别刻板印象的“害怕成功”。两性都表现出对“成功伦理”有些失望。男性对失败表现出略高的焦虑。
