ABSTRACT:
The self-perception of incompetence, first studied by Clance and Imes (1978), became known as the impostor phenomenon. This phenomenon prevents individuals from acknowledging their own successes, leading them to attribute their achievements to luck or external circumstances. In higher education, constant evaluations and the pressure for high productivity trigger psychological distress. This study discusses the psychological impacts caused by the self-perception of incompetence in students, based on scientific literature, and presents institutional forms of support. It is a qualitative, descriptive, and bibliographic research. The literature indicates that the phenomenon is linked to high levels of anxiety, depressive symptoms, academic burnout, and fear of being unmasked. It is concluded that overcoming this suffering requires institutional support, welcoming initiatives from the university, and cognitive-behavioral strategies that reinforce students' self-efficacy and confidence.
