Sisällön kuvaus

The data consists of writings by university students and recent graduates about their experiences of imposter syndrome. The purpose of the collection of writings was to gain insight into how early career graduates perceive the imposter syndrome to have affected them. Writings were expected from graduates who were in the final stages of their studies and had already been employed in their field, as well as from graduates who were in employment and had graduated up to three years earlier. They were free to write about their own experiences in a completely informal way. The invitation to write also included a number of questions to help with the writing process.

Background information are classified by gender, age and educational background. The data were organised into an easy to use HTML version at FSD.
