Online survey including demographic questions, Clance Impostor Phenomenon Scale (CIPS), and Tolerance of Ambiguity Scale (TAS). Descriptive analyses assessed (N = 422) demographic data, CIPS, and TAS scores. Chi-square tests determined distribution across demographic variables. Kruskal-Wallis tests assessed differences between CIPS and TAS. Age was a proxy for career stage in Pearson product-moment correlations to assess relationships between CIPS and TAS.
In practicing PTs (M age = 42.12, SD = 12.34), moderate (48.6%; n = 205) to frequent (26.8%; n = 113) IP feelings were prevalent, but only 31.5% (n = 133) were true impostors. Significant differences exist in clinical experience for CIPS, H(7, n = 422) = 67.82, p <.001 and TAS, H(7, n = 422) = 21.79, p= .003. Most PTs tolerate ambiguity (M = 54.93, SD = 8.19). A moderate negative correlation between age and CIPS, r = -.36, p <.001 and a small negative correlation between age and TAS, r=-.19, p <.001 exists. Age accounts for 13% of the variance per IP and 3.6% variance per TAS score. A small positive relationship exists between CIPS and TAS, r = .10, p <.05.
Practicing PTs experience moderate to frequent IP and are ambiguity tolerant. Clinical experience is inversely related to IP and AT. Almost half of early-career PTs feel like impostors, which can lead to decreased job satisfaction, burnout, psychological distress, feelings of self-doubt, and depression.
在线调查,包括人口统计问题,克莱斯冒充现象量表(CIPS),和容忍度模糊量表(TAS)。描述性分析评估(N=422)人口统计数据,CIPS,和TAS评分。卡方检验确定了人口统计学变量的分布。Kruskal-Wallis检验评估了CIPS和TAS之间的差异。年龄是皮尔逊产品-时刻相关性中职业阶段的代表,以评估CIPS和TAS之间的关系。
在练习PT时(M年龄=42.12,SD=12.34),中等(48.6%;n=205)至频繁(26.8%;n=113)的IP感受普遍存在,但只有31.5%(n=133)是真正的冒名顶替者。CIPS的临床经验存在显著差异,H(7,n=422)=67.82,p<.001,TAS,H(7,n=422)=21.79,p=.003。大多数PT容忍歧义(M=54.93,SD=8.19)。年龄与CIPS之间呈中度负相关,r=-.36,p<.001,年龄与TAS之间存在小的负相关,r=-.19,p<.001存在。年龄占每个IP方差的13%和每个TAS评分方差的3.6%。CIPS和TAS之间存在小的正相关关系,r=.10,p<.05。
练习PT会经历中等到频繁的IP,并且可以容忍歧义。临床经验与IP和AT成反比。几乎一半的职业生涯早期PT觉得自己是冒名顶替者,这会导致工作满意度下降,倦怠,心理困扰,自我怀疑的感觉,和抑郁症。
