| Abstract | This research work attempts to unravel the complicated interrelation of the Impostor Phenomenon (IP), self-efficacy, and perfectionism in high-achieving aspirants. Through a sample of 150 individuals acknowledged for their academic or professional excellence, the research utilizes three well-known psychometric instruments: the Clance Impostor Phenomenon Scale (CIPS), the General Self-Efficacy Scale, and the Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (FMPS). The process of data collection is meticulous, and the data obtained is analyzed using SPSS. The results to be discovered point to a situation where the feeling of being an impostor to a great extent is accompanied by low self-efficacy and high perfectionistic tendencies, thus uncovering significant psychological patterns of people who are striving for success at the top level. The present study intends to equip educators, counselors, and organizational leaders with the means to facilitate the mental health and performance of high-achieving individuals. Suggestions for targeted interventions are supposed to emerge from the observed complex associations, thus making a contribution to a more supportive and understanding environment for aspirants at the summit of accomplishment. |
