▼ Fear of
failure was studied in the field of psychology for more than 60 years before it was studied in other fields such as education, sports and entrepreneurship. In previous entrepreneurship research,
fear of
failure was often reported as a barrier that prevented individuals from starting up businesses. There is limited research on the experience of
fear of
failure across various stages of the entrepreneurship process such as the pre-start-up and early phase of the venture, particularly among young entrepreneurs. Thus, this thesis aims to explore
fear of
failure experiences among young start-up entrepreneurs who started their ventures within the past one to three years in the specific country context of Cambodia.
The key question that guided this thesis was “How do young entrepreneurs experience and cope with
fear of
failure in the context of new venture start-ups?”. This thesis employed a qualitative method to explore
fear of
failure experiences among young start-up entrepreneurs in Cambodia. The interviews were conducted with ten young entrepreneurs aged 25 to 32 years who had launched their businesses within the past one to three years.
The research findings revealed the two main sources of
fear of
failure, related to societal pressures and
fear of challenges in business. The findings further provided a more nuanced picture of both the negative and positive effects of
fear of
failure, which had rarely been explored in previous research. Those negative and positive effects were seen in the form of altered business activities and decisions, and personal well-being, feelings and emotions being impacted. Interestingly, the findings provided initial empirical evidence of a range of strategies and behaviours of
coping with
fear of
failure. Three main categories of
coping were: planning, managing, and seeking support; self-management for mental and physical health; and purpose and meaning of the start-up.

▼ The thesis addresses the broad research problem exploring
fear of
failure as experienced by small-and medium-sized enterprise (SME) owners in the context of their making decisions about internationalising their ventures. The success of SME internationalisation pursuits is associated with the decision maker’s capacity to appropriately evaluate and to make relevant decisions in the context of the risk, uncertainty and complexity of the international business environment. The possibility of
failure, in particular, contributes to the difficulty of decision-making, with
failure in international markets a widespread phenomenon.
Fear of
failure is well researched in Psychology and is studied extensively in Entrepreneurship research; however, these findings cannot be simply extended into new contexts including international business settings, because individuals may generate unique feelings, thinking and behavioural responses when moving into a new environment. A number of empirical studies indicate the effect of emotions on internationalisation decisions, including direct foreign investment and the impact of
fear of
failure on the exporting behaviour of SMEs. Although
fear of
failure is recognised as being real and a contributor toward other behaviours, SME owners’ emotions, cognition and behavioural responses are unclear when experiencing
fear of
failure in the context of making internationalisation decisions. The thesis advances the field of international business by providing insights into the relevance and complexity of the
fear of
failure in the process of SME internationalisation. The research builds upon existing theory and extends the conversation about “connecting people with internationalisation”, exploring the micro- level characteristics and actions of the individual driving firm-level internationalisation outcomes. The thesis explores the scholarly conversation between ‘emotion and internationalisation’ by leveraging insights from Psychology and Entrepreneurship in order to better understand the
fear of
failure experiences of individuals and by identifying ways in which they respond differently. Such in-depth understanding cannot be achieved if this complex phenomenon is explored within the process of internationalisation alone. The contexts for making internationalisation decisions provide greater insights as a conduit for in-depth exploration of the
fear of
failure experience and its dynamic and complex nature. This is because new market entry decisions are often made in unfamiliar, foreign business environments underpinned by risk and uncertainty. They provide environmental stimuli to trigger cognitive re-appraisals and to impact the SME owners’ perceptions relating to venture growth potential and/or potential threats to venture survival. This empirical investigation answers two research questions: (1) How do SME owners experience emotional and cognitive aspects of
fear of
failure in the context of making internationalisation decisions for their firms? (2) How do SME owners learn when experiencing
fear of…

▼ M.Ed. (Orthopedagogics)
The purpose of this study is to determine whether milieu-deprived school beginners reveal fear of failure and achievement motivation tendencies. Fear of failure is a phenomenon which normally occurs among all people, although it can vary in degrees of intensity. It would appear, from the literature, that fear of failure can be viewed as a specific form of anxiety which has a detrimental effect on achievement. Owing to the human functioning as a totality, the concepts of fear of failure and achievement motivation can not be examined in isolation, therefore the relationship between these concepts and those of anxiety and achievement has been investigated. Several researchers agree that pre-school children are quite capable of forming a clear notion concerning their personal capabilities and that motives are established in their pre-school years. Views expressed by researchers suggest that at school entry, motive preferences are already perceptible in school beginners; these children may be achievement motivated or reveal a fear of failure. The low achievement motivation and negative self-concept of milieu deprived school beginners are conspicuous at school entry. These children are neither able to measure up to the school's expectations nor actualize their potential properly because of limited experiences, deficient cognitive and language development, as well as inadequate concentration. This is a result of unfavourable educational circumstances and insufficient developmental opportunities during the pre-school period. The above-mentioned short-comings which milieu-deprived school beginners experience, cause anxiety. They perceive school as a threat and anticipate and fear failure...

▼ The Impostor Phenomenon was identified from clinical observations during therapeutic sessions with high achieving women by Dr Pauline Clance. Despite objective evidence of success, these women had a pervasive psychological experience, believing that they were intellectual frauds and feared being recognised as impostors. They suffered from anxiety, fear of failure and dissatisfaction with life. Previous research has suggested that family achievement values and perfectionism may lead to the related trait, Impostorism.
This thesis examined the contributions of mixed messages about achievement from family and perfectionism as hypothesised antecedents of Impostorism and coping styles and psychological distress (measured by anxiety, somatisation, and depression) as hypothesised consequences. Complete data was obtained from 354 students from the University of Tasmania. Participants completed the Mixed Messages about Achievement from Family Scale (MMAS), the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, the Clance Impostor Phenomenon Scale (CIPS), the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations, and the Anxiety, Somatisation, and Depression subscales of the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised. Exploratory Factor Analysis was used to refine the MMAS and the CIPS.
Structural Equation Modelling was used to test the hypothesised antecedents and consequences models of Impostorism. The analyses for antecedents of Impostorism found that MMAS and Socially Prescribed Perfectionism were moderately correlated with Impostorism, while Self-Oriented Perfectionism was less related. Other-Oriented Perfectionism had little relationship with Impostorism, suggesting Impostorism relates to specific types of perfectionism rather than general perfectionism. The final Antecedents model of Impostorism, including Mixed Messages from Family, Socially Prescribed Perfectionism, and Self-Oriented Perfectionism, was a good fit and accounted for 46% of the variance in Impostorism.
The analysis of consequences of lmpostorism found that Emotion- Focussed Coping was most strongly correlated with Impostorism, with the other coping styles negligibly related. Anxiety, Somatisation, and Depression were also correlated with Impostorism and treated as indices of Psychological Distress. The final Consequences model of lmpostorism including Emotion-Focussed Coping largely mediating the prediction of Psychological Distress, was a reasonable fit and could account for 40% of the variance in Psychological Distress.
The Antecedents and Consequences model of Impostorism were combined and generated two alternative models. In Model 1 Impostorism entirely mediated the relationship between hypothesied antecedents and consequences. In Model 2 Emotion-Focussed Coping fully mediated the relationship between Impostorism and Psychological Distress if a path from Socially Prescribed Perfectionism to Emotion-Focussed Coping was allowed.
Overall, the findings suggested that Impostorism is a valuable construct, possibly mediating the relationship between self-imposed and socially…

▼ This research aims to explore the
fear of
failure experience at the entrepreneurial intention stage. The choice was to examine this stage specifically because the immediate antecedent and most powerful predictor of entrepreneurial behaviour is entrepreneurial intention (Krueger & Carsud, 1993). As such, there is an imperative to better understand the relationship between
fear of
failure and entrepreneurial intention and, to what extent the
fear of
failure impedes (or indeed enhances) entrepreneurial intention. Although other entrepreneurship studies have looked at
fear of
failure, none has examined the impact of
fear of
failure on entrepreneurial intention. Given the relationship between intention and behaviour (Ajzen, 1999) and the importance of entrepreneurial activity in stimulating economic (and social) activity (Galinda & Méndez, 2014; Zhao, 2005), this research plays a significant role in contributing towards our understanding of why some entrepreneurs may fail to start ventures, despite having entrepreneurial intentions to do so. The
fear of
failure may differ across a range of demographics and cultures, so the scope of this research limits itself to one specific group - young people aged 24 years or less (who aspire to be entrepreneurs or who are existing entrepreneurs). This demographic is critical because there is a high global rate of youth unemployment and yet there is anecdotal evidence to suggest that this age group has significant potential to establish highly innovative enterprises (OECD, 2019). In addition, this research adopts a cross-country perspective examining
fear of
failure in different socio-economic, cultural and developmental environments, to arrive at a more robust understanding of the
fear of
failure with the aim of increasing the external validity of our research findings. To do this, this research examines
fear of
failure as it pertains to young aspiring and existing entrepreneurs in two very different countries – one that is developed and one that is developing: Australia and Bangladesh. By focusing on the particular young person demographic chosen and by adopting a cross country cultural and developmental comparative approach, this research aims to advance our understanding of the
fear of
failure as it relates to entrepreneurial intention within a specific context. In this regard, this research addresses the following research questions: “How do young people experience
fear of
failure with regard to their entrepreneurial intentions?”, and “What factors have a positive effect on the relationship between
fear of
failure and entrepreneurial intention among young people?” This research adopts snowball sampling for data collection purposes. Data analysis occurs using a qualitative research methodology and applies a thematic analysis technique to the data collected via 40 interviews (20 aspiring and 20 active entrepreneurs in Australia and Bangladesh). Data analysis followed a three-step process of reduction and breakdown of text to identify basic, organising, and global themes…

▼ Fear of failure (FF) har negativ påverkan på individers motivation, val av arbete, prestationsförmåga och allmänt välbefinnande och kan uppstå när människor skall ta olika beslut. Vår studie avsåg att undersöka om fear of failure kan förklaras av personlighet och om det fanns andra påverkansfaktorer, så som socioekonomisk status, ålder och kön. En kvantitativ metod användes och datainsamlingen skedde via en webbaserad enkät innehållande 62 frågor. Deltagarna i studien (N = 153), bestod av 115 kvinnor (75%) och 38 män (25%). IPIP-30 användes för att mäta personlighet och Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (PFAI) användes för att mäta fear of failure. Resultatet visade i regressionsanalys ett mycket starkt statistiskt signifikant samband (r = .69) mellan fear of failure och personlighetsfaktorn neuroticism, samt att det kunde förklara ≈ 53% av variansen inom fear of failure. Resultatet var förvånansvärt starkt och tydligt och visade på ett övertygande sätt att personlighet förklarade en stor del av innehållet i det begrepp som kallas "fear of failure". Vår slutsats är därför att fear of failure som begrepp, tillsammans med tillhörande mätinstrument (PFAI-skalan), blir överflödigt och kan istället ersättas av personlighetsfaktorerna i femfaktormodellen.
Fear of failure (FF) has a negative impact on individuals' motivation, choice of occupation, ability to work and general well-being and can occur when people make different decisions. Our study was designed to investigate whether fear of failure can be explained by personality and whether there were other factors of influence such as socioeconomic status, age and sex. A quantitative method was used, and data collection was conducted via a web-based survey containing 62 questions. The participants in the study (N = 153) consisted of 115 women (75%) and 38 men (25%). IPIP-30 was used to measure personality and the Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (PFAI) was used to measure fear of failure. The result showed in regression analysis a very strong statistically significant relationship (r = .69) between fear of failure and the personality factor neuroticism, and that it could explain ≈ 53% of the variance in fear of failure. The result was surprisingly strong and clear and showed convincingly that personality explained a large part of the content of the term called "fear of failure". Our conclusion is therefore that fear of failure as a concept, together with the associated measuring instrument (PFAI scale) becomes superfluous and can instead be replaced by the personality in the five-factor model.

▼ Masters Coursework - Master of Clinical Psychology (MClinPsych)
It has been debated whether peritraumatic dissociation (PD) is a unidimensional construct and a unique predictor of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Hence, the present study conducted an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) of PD to determine if it is multifactorial, and whether one factor, independently and uniquely predicted PTSD severity, in a sample of motor vehicle accident (MVA) victims. PD was evaluated in the presence of other reliable risk factors that were either pre-existing vulnerabilities: female gender, neuroticism, trait dissociation, coping styles or peritraumatic: fear of dying. It was hypothesised that females and individuals with higher peritraumatic dissociation, trait dissociation, neuroticism, avoidant- or emotion-oriented coping styles, or fear of dying scores would experience greater PTSD severity. Two PD factors, altered awareness and depersonalisation/derealisation were obtained by EFA. In the final model, only PD Factor 1, altered awareness, alongside trait dissociation and fear of dying predicted PTSD severity and collectively explained 40.6% of the total variance. In addition, each predictor uniquely contributed to the amount of variance explained. This study highlights the importance of assessment of PD, trait dissociation, and subjective appraisals of trauma, like fear of dying, to ascertain susceptibility to PTSD post-MVA and to provide appropriate clinical intervention for such symptomatology.

▼ Omdat gemiddeld één op de tien leerlingen last heeft van faalangst, wordt in dit onderzoek gekeken wat het effect is van een faalangstreductietraining. Gegevens zijn verzameld bij 131 leerlingen die leerwegondersteunend VMBO-onderwijs volgen op drie verschillende scholen. Op één van deze scholen werd gedurende veertien weken een faalangstreductietraining gegeven aan alle leerlingen. Naast het effect van de training is tevens bepaald of er een relatie bestaat tussen gemiddelde DLE en faalangst; dit blijkt niet het geval te zijn. Daarnaast blijken er geen verschillen te bestaan tussen jongens en meisjes wat betreft faalangst. Tenslotte toont het onderzoek aan dat de faalangstreductietraining geen effect heeft gehad op het verminderen van faalangst bij leerlingen.

▼ Positive Psychology has predominantly been concerned with the study of positive emotions and states in relation to flourishing until the rise of its second wave that inspired explorations of the 'darker side' of human nature for a more nuanced understanding of how people can flourish under a wide range of life circumstances. The research comprising this thesis was approached with the philosophy of the second wave of Positive Psychology as a framework and aimed through the use of various methodologies, to explore the adaptive role of negative emotions in goal-pursuit with specific focus on fear of failure. Chapter one consists of an exploratory study of a mixed-method nature that made use of a SenseMaker® software tool to explore the depth of the fear of failure experience in hopes of making a judgement regarding its value in goal-pursuit. Two-hundred participants provided a narrative of a fear of failure experience and attributed their own meaning to the story in a self-signification framework designed by the researcher to capture the cognitive, emotional and behavioural profiles of fear of failure. The existence of individual differences in behavioural responses to affective experiences of fear of failure was uncovered as a potential important factor to consider in the study of the utility of negative emotions and therefore inspired the second study to address this issue in a goal-achievement context. Accordingly, study two forms the experimental Chapter and is concerned with a sub-group of the population known as defensive pessimists who provide support for the positive value of negative emotions. These individuals are known to harness their negative emotions to successfully achieve goals and any attempts made to disrupt their habitual strategy negatively affects performance. With the supporting argument that emotion regulation strategies do not offer a 'one-size-fits all' solution, Chapter Two aimed to test the effect of an acceptance manipulation, which unlike other regulatory strategies do not seek to directly change thoughts and emotions. Forty-eight defensive pessimists took part and were randomly allocated to manipulation and control groups. The ability of acceptance to create a cognitive space to allow the habitual harnessing of emotion to cease for defensive pessimists provided an opportunity for further investigation in Chapter Three of how to best make use of this space to help defensive pessimists. The final Chapter therefore, consists of an intervention study that contrary to many previous intervening attempts aimed to build enduring resources to support long-term wellbeing and valued goal achievement among defensive pessimists. Twenty-one out of forty-five participants took part in individual coaching sessions consisting of material aimed at increasing self-worth and value-based action. The remaining twenty-four participants formed the control group. Taken as a whole, this research has made important contribution to the study of individual differences in motivation and Positive Psychology and holds…

▼ [ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This study produces a grounded theory of how coresidence between divorcing daughters with minor children and their mothers is negotiated. Thirteen daughters and seven mothers (including 4 mother-daughter dyads) participated in this study. The core phenomenon that emerged from this study for both generations was that of feeling like a
failure, which was experienced by both daughters (loss of autonomy, social stigma, and low self-esteem) and mothers (history of parenting and current support to their daughters). Factors that led to coresidence, as well as how participants managed feeling like a
failure are also discussed.

▼ Fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) is defined as “fear, worry, or concern relating to the possibility that cancer will come back or progress (Lebel et al., 2016, p. 3266). FCR is the most frequently reported concern identified among cancer survivors (Baker, Denniston, Smith, & West, 2005; Lebel, Rosberger, Edgar, & Devins, 2007). Although approximately 50% of cancer survivors experience moderate-to-high levels of FCR (Simard et al., 2013), few psychosocial interventions exist that directly target this construct. The overarching study objectives were: (a) to adapt a manualized, 6-week, cognitive-existential group therapy intervention for FCR to an individual format; (b) to pilot-test the feasibility, acceptability, and satisfaction of this individual intervention on n=3 participants; and (c) to further pilot-test the efficacy of the individual intervention on n=25 participants, via a randomized controlled trial (RCT). In study 1, n=3 cancer survivors (1 male, 2 females) completed the one-on-one therapy intervention for the psychological treatment of FCR. Sessions were 60-90 minutes long, and included cognitive restructuring exercises, behavioural experiments, relaxation techniques, existential processing of the here-and-now, and finding meaning in life post-diagnosis. Participants completed questionnaire packages throughout the intervention and an exit interview to determine their overall feedback on the intervention. Quantitative analyses revealed downwards trends in fear of cancer recurrence and cancer-specific distress across participants. Qualitative analyses of the exit interviews revealed that all participants found the intervention useful, and that the sessions had favourable pacing and length.
In study 2, the FCR intervention was further pilot-tested via an RCT. Twenty-five female cancer survivors were randomized to an experimental group or a wait-list control group. Sessions included cognitive restructuring techniques, behavioural experiments, confronting existential distress, and relaxation exercises. Nineteen women (n=9 intervention, n=10 control) completed the 6-week therapy intervention, and completed questionnaire packages at pre-, post- and 3-month follow-up. Between-within ANOVAs revealed significant interactions in the primary outcome measure of FCR, and secondary outcome measures of cancer-specific distress and uncertainty in illness for participants in the experimental group. Repeated measures ANOVAs revealed reductions in FCR, cancer-specific distress, uncertainty in illness, reassurance-seeking, cognitive avoidance, and intolerance of uncertainty, and revealed improvements in positive reinterpretation and growth, use of emotional support and mental health (improved quality of life) for participants in the experimental group, as compared to the wait-list control group. The variables that changed either maintained or improved at follow-up. Results from this study demonstrate promising results in addressing FCR in cancer survivors via a cognitive-existential intervention. Future research should…

▼ Strah je eno izmed osnovnih čustev, s katerim se posameznik srečuje tekom svoje življenjske poti. Pogosto se pojavi pred novim doživetjem. Otrok ta občutek strahu lahko doživlja ob vstopu v šolo in tekom šolanja v različnih šolskih situacijah, kot so ocenjevanje, javno nastopanje, neuspehi, odnosi z vrstniki in učitelji, nasilje ali pa pri posameznih šolskih predmetih. Namen raziskave je bil s pomočjo deskriptivne in kavzalno-neeksperimentalne metode preučiti doživljanje strahu učencev tretjih, petih in sedmih razredov ter zaznavanje učenčevih strahov s strani učiteljev, ki v raziskavi udeležene učence poučujejo. Podatki so bili pridobljeni z uporabo kvantitativne in kvalitativne tehnike anketiranja za učence ter kvalitativne tehnike polstrukturiranega intervjuja za učitelje razredne in predmetne stopnje v OŠ. Rezultati kažejo, da večina učiteljev zaznava strah učencev v različnih šolskih situacijah, kljub temu da njihovi učenci v večini
ocenjujejo, da redko ali nikoli ne občutijo strahu v izbranih šolskih situacijah. Tako učitelji kot učenci najpogosteje zaznavajo prisotnost strahu pred ocenjevanjem/neuspehom. V primerjavi z dečki, ki nekoliko pogosteje izražajo strah do javnega nastopanja in neuspeha, pa dekleta pogosteje in intenzivneje izražajo strah v nekaterih drugih šolskih situacijah (strah pred nasiljem, zavračanjem vrstnikov, športnimi dejavnostmi). Glede na starost so rezultati pokazali, da mlajši učenci pogosteje in intenzivneje izražajo strah do vzgojnih alternativ (nasilje, kazen, moč avtoritete). S starostjo se veča strah pred neuspehom oziroma ocenjevanjem, zato torej učenci na višji stopnji dajejo večjo veljavo in bolj zaupajo avtoriteti, medtem ko mlajši lažje zaupajo svoje strahove svojim vrstnikom. Tako učenci kot učitelji menijo, da je najučinkovitejša alternativa pri premagovanju strahu pozitiven pristop, npr. pogovor, uporaba sprostitvenih tehnik za umiritev ali preusmeritev pozornosti.
Fear
is one of the basic feelings that we come across throughout our life. It often occurs because children usually fear upcoming events. A child can experience this feeling of fear at entering the school and throughout its schooling in various school situations like marking, public appearance, failure, peer relationships, communications with teachers, violence or at particular school subjects. The purpose of this research is on the one hand to study pupil’s fear in the 3rd, 5th and 7th class and on the other hand how do the teachers sense their pupil’s fears. To do this I use descriptive methods and non-experimental causal studies. All the data is gathered with the usage of interviews for students based on quantitative and qualitative techniques. The primary school teachers were interviewed by semi-structured qualitative technique. The results show that most teachers sense pupils’ fear in various school situations. On the other hand their pupils mostly estimate that they rarely or never
sense fear in sophisticated school situations. Pupils and teachers most commonly perceive the presence of fear before…

▼ Eftersom studenter ständigt står inför olika prestationsmoment avser denna studie att mäta huruvida det finns ett samband mellan personlighetsdragen ur Big Five-teorin och prestationsångest hos universitets- och högskolestudenter i Sverige, för att vidare kunna undersöka om olika personlighetsdrag är mer eller mindre känsliga för prestationsångest. Studien fick 86 svar på en webbenkät där studenterna först fick svara på bakgrundsvariablerna; kön, ålder, antal studieår, studietakt och om de arbetade parallellt med studierna. Vidare mätte enkäten Big Five’s personlighetsdrag med The Big Five Inventory (BFI) samt prestationsångest, som operationaliseras med Fear of Failure (FF) och mättes med The Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (PFAI). Vi fann en signifikant positiv relation mellan generell FF och personlighetsdraget neuroticism samt en signifikant positiv relation mellan generell FF och kvinnor. Mycket talar för att alla upplever FF men att vissa har förmågan att vända det till något positivt på grund av en stark passion och motivering för att lyckas nå sina mål.
Students is a group that constantly is facing different elements of performance and therefore, this study aims to measure whether there is a correlation between the personality traits of the Big Five theory and performance anxiety for university and college students in Sweden, to further investigate if different personality traits are more or less sensitive to performance anxiety. The study received 86 answers from a web-poll where students first responded to background variables such as; gender, age, number of academic years, study-pace and if they worked during their studies. Furthermore, the survey measured Big Five's personality traits with The Big Five Inventory (BFI) and performance anxiety, got operationalized with Fear of Failure (FF), measured with The Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (PFAI). The study found a significantpositive relationship between general FF and the personality trait neuroticism and a significantpositiverelationship between general FF and women.Much suggests that everyone experiences some degree of FF but that some have the ability to turn it to something positive due to a strong passion and motivation to succeed in achieving their goals.

▼ Fear of failure is known to have a negative influence on educational performance. About 20% of the students in higher and academic education struggles with fear of failure. Cognitive behavioural therapy has been found to be the most effective for the treatment of fear of failure. A relatively new technique to change a person’s way of thinking by modifying dysfunctional cognitive processes is cognitive bias modification (CBM). CBM can be focused on several cognitive aspects. The focus of this study is on CBM-I which aim is to teach people to interpret ambiguous situations in a more positive way. In the current study the effects of a CBM-I training on students with fear of failure was examined.
The aim of the present study was to examine if participation in CBM-I training results in a decrease of fear of failure, study stress, negative interpretation bias and an increase of positive interpretation bias.

▼ Background: Parents of children with epilepsy and
other neurological conditions live with a feeling of constant
uncertainty. The uncertainty associated with caring for a child
with epilepsy and other neurological conditions produces stress,
which leads to decreased parental belief in caregiving skills,
anxiety, and depression, ultimately altering parental functioning
resulting in an increase in child behavioral problems. The stress
associated with caring for a child with epilepsy and other
neurological conditions is unlike caring for children with other
chronic conditions. Epilepsy and other neurological conditions are
unpredictable and there are often no warning signs prior to an
acute event. This unpredictability accompanied with stigma results
in social isolation and impacts family functioning. In addition,
children with epilepsy have a higher rate of psychological
co-morbidities and behavior problems when compared to children with
other chronic conditions. This produces an additional burden on the
parents and family. Study Design: This randomized controlled trial
tested the efficacy of the COPE intervention for parents of
children with epilepsy and other neurological conditions. This
intervention was administered at three intervals: 1) during
hospital admission in writing and by audiotape, MP3 download, or
Podcast; 2) three days following hospital discharge by telephone;
and 3) four to six weeks after hospital discharge in writing and by
audiotape, MP3 download, or Podcast. Results: Forty-six parents of
children admitted to the inpatient neuroscience unit at Boston
Children's Hospital participated in the study. Several study
limitations resulted in an inadequate sample size to obtain the
power necessary to reach statistically significant results for a
majority of the research questions. A one-between, one-within
multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) revealed that the main
effect of time was significant for differences in state anxiety for
both the Usual Care Group and the Intervention Group, F, (1, 20) =
9.86, p = .005, indicating that state anxiety for both groups
combined was more pronounced during the hospitalization. A
one-between, one-within MANOVA demonstrated that the effect of the
interaction between time and group was significant for internalized
behavior assessment system score only (p=.037) as the Usual Care
Group reported a significant decrease in internalizing behavior
scores in their children over time. Conclusions: Findings from this
study have significant implications for clinical practice and
future research. Parents of children with neurological conditions
often struggle to manage a constant feeling of uncertainty in their
daily lives. Nurses possess the knowledge and expertise necessary
to identify the psychosocial needs of these parents and provide
education and support as needed. Future research should focus on
designing interventions to meet the needs of these families and
develop strategies to help improve the quality of life for both the
parent and child living with a neurological…

▼ Happy Hearts Automatic Referral (HHAR) was a program that referred heart
failure (HF) patients to Transitional Care (TC) at Banner Health. The purpose of the human subject’s research was to examine the use of the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure® questionnaire (MLHFQ) as a survey instrument to identify moderate quality of life (QOL) in patients living with HF. The most common referral to TC prior to the project was patients with poor QOL. The project explored the influence of earlier referrals to improve QOL for participants living with HF. The MLHFQ was chosen because it is a valid and reliable instrument specific to QOL. The HF population was chosen because the most commonly referred patients to interventions such as TC are those that pose the smallest risk for readmission, have the highest risk of readmission, or have the potential to demonstrate the most significant increase in QOL. By offering TC to patients with moderate QOL, an opportunity existed to reduce advancement into a population that is characteristic of high-risk readmissions. The project identified potential participants, then administered the MLHFQ, and scored it. When scores were between 26 and 45, participants were considered qualified participants for this project. Ideally, the patient would have been enrolled in TC for 30 days and the project would have administered another MLHFQ at completion of 30 days of TC to evaluate a change in QOL; however, due to the short-term nature of this project the TC content and follow-up administration of the MLHFQ was not evaluated. Also, while this project was taking place the TC team at Banner Health was not accepting new patients. A human subject’s research approach was applied and examined the responses to the MLHFQ from a small sample of five moderate QOL participants and described the expected responses for improved QOL if a second MLHFQ was to be administered following TC. Specifically items 1, 7, 8, 14, and 19 were examined to discuss how TC interventions might have improved scores on these items. The project concluded by describing how future cycles should be completed for further research.

▼ Recent studies have shown that purpose in life promotes quicker emotional recovery from negative experiences and greater self-regulation on boring tasks. In two studies, I investigated the role of purpose in predicting the regulation of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors after experiences of
failure. In Study 1, an online survey among adults in the United States revealed significant positive correlations between sense of purpose in life, mood ratings, and indicators of successful
coping in response to test
failure. No relationship was observed between purpose and persistence on test problems after
failure. In Study 2, a laboratory experiment using college students showed that writing about one's purpose prior to failing predicted subsequent levels of positive mood, negative mood, and state self-esteem, and purpose did predicted either persistence on test problems or time spent on an alternative activity after
failure. Together, these findings suggest that purpose in life is an important resource for regulating emotional and cognitive responses to
failure.

▼ The purpose of this qualitative study was to develop a deeper understanding of the factors that influence young women with chronic heart
failure within a specific age group. A descriptive qualitative design using content analysis identified five major themes on young women's experiences living with heart
failure: Emotional Concerns, Lack of Social Support, Lack of Adherence, Personal Factors, and Knowledge Deficit. Young women were often not diagnosed and treated for heart disease because both health care providers and these women lacked knowledge on heart falure in young women. Women ere thought of as needy, seeking attention and there was a definite lack of support by both family/friends and the health care community. The lack of social support contributed to lack of adherence to the medical plan of care. Personal issues contributed to disease process. Having heart
failure was difficult for young women; frustration and depresson were a common occurrence. Further research is needed on young women with heart
failure to better understand the health care needs of this segment of the population with heart
failure.

▼ Background
Hyponatremia is a common electrolyte disturbance in hospitalized patients with heart failure. It is associated with high morbidity, longer in-hospital stay and is a well known predictor of mortality in patients with heart failure. There is a paucity of data on the prevalence of hyponatremia in patients with heart failure in Kenya.
Objectives
The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of hyponatremia in patients admitted with heart failure in the medical wards at the Kenyatta National Hospital.
Methodology
This was a prospective, observational cohort study conducted over a period of about 3 months in patients above 13 years with heart failure in the medical wards. Patients were screened using the Modified Framingham „Criteria for eligibility and recruited upon signing an informed consent or assent. Sodium levels were done within 24 hours of admission and patients were followed up to determine their outcome at two weeks. The outcomes included, in hospital mortality, discharged home and prolonged stay in hospital beyond the 2 weeks.
Results
The study was conducted from December 2015 to February 2016. Eighty nine patients with heart failure based on the Modified Framingham‟s Criteria were recruited. 53.9% were males and the mean age of the patients was 51.6±18.8 years with a range of 14-86 years. On admission 94.4% of the patients were in NYHA class 3 and 4. 79.8% (95% CI 71.9-87.6) of the patients had hyponatremia at admission. The mean sodium level was 128.2±8.1 mmol/L. Of these, 84.3% were on a loop diuretic at admission while 6.7% were on a thiazide diuretic. During the 2 week follow up period, 13.5% of all the patients admitted with heart failure died while 48.5% were discharged from the hospital. 38.2% of the patients had a prolonged stay and were still undergoing treatment at the lapse of the 2 weeks. Of those who died 66.7% had hyponatremia while 88.2% of those who were still admitted at the lapse of the 2 weeks had hyponatremia.
Conclusion
This study found a high prevalence of hyponatremia in patients admitted with heart failure at the KNH. Hyponatremia did not affect the short term outcomes in a statistically significant way; however, the trend suggests worse outcomes in the hyponatremia patients.

▼ Research has found that being involved with sports can be physically, psychologically and socially beneficial, especially during youth’s developmental years (Fraser-Thomas, Cote, & Deakin, 2005). Many youth programs advocate sporting activities as a way to foster positive youth development. Within this body of research, the issues of fear of failure and perfectionism have been considered as factors that affect a person’s motivation to continue participating in sport (Conroy, 2001). To date, fear of failure and perfectionism have typically been explored in achievement settings, and only in relation to competitive sports (e.g. Dunn, Gotwals, Dunn, & Syrotuik, 2006; Flett & Hewitt, 2005; Sagar, Lavallee, & Spray, 2007). The present research explored these constructs within a street-sports environment, where achievement and success is not a fundamental aspect. Furthermore, because of the unique learning environment that street-sports provide, this study examined whether a relationship existed between learning styles, fear of failure and perfectionism. Participants included youth – aged 10 to 18 years old – who participated in street-sports as their main form of physical activity. The street-sports included in this study were skateboarding, BMX and parkour. Self-report questionnaires were used to measure learning style, fears of failing and perfectionism scores. Correlation and regression analyses were employed to examine existing relationships between the three constructs. Results demonstrated that a relationship did exist between perfectionism and fear of failure, although this was low in comparison to prior research in competitive sports. Confirming previous findings, concern over mistakes was the aspect of perfectionism that showed the strongest relationship to fear of failure. Additionally, the results indicated that street-sport participants were collaborative learners and the more collaborative their learning style, the less likely they were to experience fear of failure. This thesis presents a proposition for better inclusion of street-sports within quantitative studies, particularly with interest to youth development.

▼ Voor veel mensen die last van faalangst hebben werkt dit vaak belemmerend in hun werkende- en sociale leven. Faalangst wordt gezien als een vorm van sociale angst. In sociale interactie wordt informatie uitgewisseld die ambigu van aard kan zijn en dus zowel positief als negatief geïnterpreteerd kan worden. Als iemand ambigue informatie vaak onterecht negatief interpreteert spreken we van interpretatiebias. De vraag is of er een samenhang is van faalangst met interpretatiebias. Als die samenhang er blijkt te zijn, zou iemand met faalangst door middel van het verminderen van interpretatiebias geholpen kunnen worden.
Het doel van dit onderzoek is om bij volwassenen na te gaan of een hogere mate van faalangst een sterkere mate van interpretatiebias betekent. Daarnaast wordt onderzocht interpretatiebias sterker is bij prestatiesituaties dan bij sociale situaties.
Subjects/Keywords: interpretatiebias;
faalangst;

▼ The relationship between perfectionism and procrastination has been established in the literature; however, findings regarding the magnitude of this correlation are inconsistent. Some studies found small-to-medium effects between trait-perfectionism and trait-procrastination, while others found large effects between perfectionistic cognitions and procrastinatory cognitions, suggesting that the association may be stronger when assessed from a cognitive perspective. The present study addressed this inconsistency, by exploring this association using both trait and cognitive measures. There was a significant and positive correlation between perfectionism and procrastination, and the largest effect size was observed between perfectionism (trait and cognitive measures) and procrastinatory cognitions, suggesting that perfectionists are not necessarily procrastinating more but are rather more cognitively distressed by their procrastinatory tendencies.
This study also addressed the mediating roles of two variables: fear of failure (FF), and overgeneralization of failure (OGF). While previous research showed that FF is linked to both perfectionism and procrastination, the role of OGF in this association has been unexamined. Findings in this study showed that FF mediated all (trait and cognitive) pathways between perfectionism and procrastination, and OGF mediated almost all pathways. Further, there was a sequential mediation, via FF followed by OGF, for all (but one) pathways between perfectionism and procrastination. This finding suggests that fear of failure predicts the tendency to overgeneralize failures to one’s global sense of self, and this combination of effects drives the association between perfectionism and procrastination.

▼ First-generation students enroll in college expecting to be the first in their families to obtain a bachelor's degree, yet historically; the number of these students who graduate with four-year degrees is much lower than their non first-generation peers (Nunez & Cuccara-Alamin; Choy, 2001; Glenn, 2008). Limited research exists on the psychological/motivational factors on this sub-population of students (McGregor, Mayleben, Buzzanga, Davis, & Becker, 1991; Pascarella, Pierson, Wolniak & Terenzini, 2004). This quantitative study researched
fear of
failure, procrastination, and self-efficacy of first and non first-generation students to determine if there were differences between the two groups. Gender, ethnicity and income level of students were included in the study to determine what, if any role these variables had on the levels of
fear of
failure, procrastination and self-efficacy of students. Lastly,
fear of
failure, procrastination, self-efficacy, gender, generational status, ethnicity, and income were entered into a multiple regression analysis to determine what factors, if any, impacted a student's college success as measured by academic GPA. The study found no significant differences on
fear of
failure, procrastination and self-efficacy between first and non first-generation students, except on one sub-scale of
fear of
failure in which first-generation freshmen students were more fearful of having an unknown future than their peers. However,
fear of
failure appears to be prevalent in various degrees among all the college students in this study. Gender differences for
fear of
failure, procrastination and self-efficacy were significant. The study found that females have significantly more
fear of
failure than males, males procrastinate at significantly higher levels than do females, and females have more academic self-efficacy than do males. A multiple regression analysis indicated that gender, iii procrastination, self-efficacy, and ethnicity are predictive of academic success. Females and Caucasian students received higher first-semester GPA's than did males and minority students. Procrastination is negatively associated with GPA, and self-efficacy is positively associated with GPA. (Published By University of Alabama Libraries)

▼ Grit has been identified as a promising area of research in social psychology for its association with various success outcomes. Given the connection between grit and success, researchers have begun to investigate factors associated with grit to better understand how gritty people achieve their goals. Other researchers have questioned if grit is unique from other related traits, like conscientiousness and self-control. This project sought to explore both of these questions: the factors associated with grit and the discriminant validity of grit. Specifically, this project looked at grit in relation to cognitive failures,
fear of
failure, and growth mindset to inquire into the associations between these factors and grit, and this project compared the grit scores of participants in the study to their conscientiousness and self-control scores to investigate grit’s discriminant validity. Participants completed several self-report surveys on these factors online. Their results indicated that grit is significantly correlated with cognitive failures (r = -0.45), but not
fear of
failure (r = -0.14) or growth mindset (r = 0.14). In addition, participants’ grit scores were significantly correlated with self-control (r = 0.61) and conscientiousness (r = 0.45), but their grit scores were able to explain a significant amount of variance in their GPAs last semester above and beyond self-control and conscientiousness (R-squared change = 0.03, F(1, 154) = 4.48, p ≤ 0.036). The results of this investigation indicate that grit may still be a useful concept in spite of its correlation with related factors and that grit may be more associated with cognitive ability than previously thought. Future research should look into grit in relation to the wider construct of cognitive control in order to explore grit’s connection with cognitive ability further.

▼ The underrepresentation of females in Science,
Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) majors is contributing to
the STEM workforce shortage. Thus, the purpose of this study is to
evaluate the degree to which non-cognitive factors of grit,
fear of
failure, and perceived difficulty predict engagement and
achievement in U.S. college STEM majors. This research will also
examine whether the predictive relationships differ based on gender
in order to identify potential factors that influence the severe
underrepresentation of females in STEM fields.

▼ Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are at a greater risk for experiencing stress, particularly stress associated with negative interpersonal relations, than individuals without disabilities. Research has found that individuals with IDD often use maladaptive
coping strategies to manage stress. The purpose of this study was to explore whether participation in a seven-and-a-half week yoga intervention served as a leisure-stress
coping strategy for adults with IDD. Using a multi-method research design, six participants completed pre- and post-Lifestress Inventory assessments, and nine participants completed post-intervention semi-structured interviews focused on yoga and
coping. Qualitative results indicated that yoga served as an emotion-focused
coping strategy for participants, as it enhanced their mood, and provided them a sense of social support. Qualitative data did not suggest that yoga served as a problem-focused
coping strategy for participants. While results suggest that yoga has the potential to serve as emotion-focused
coping strategy for adults with IDD, it is recommended that yoga be offered in conjunction with other stress management interventions when teaching stress-
coping techniques to adults with IDD. Future research should continue to explore adults with IDD’s stress experiences, and the types of
coping strategies they find most effective when managing stress.

▼ Mechanical Circulatory Support (MCS) improves the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) for patients with end-stage heart
failure (HF) (Friedrich & Bohm, 2007). Religious and spiritual practices positively influence health and well-being for cardiac patients (Ai, Park, Huang, Rodgers, & Tice, 2007; Blackhall, & Koenig, 1998). The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of spiritual well-being (SWB) and religious well-being (RWB) and
coping styles and methods (CSM) on health related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients with MCS.
This exploratory repeated measures study used Spearmans’ rho and Wilcoxons’ Signed Rank tests for correlation and comparison analyses. The study population included patients with left ventricular assist devices (HMII) and total artificial hearts (TAH). Patients were assessed pre and post MCS implant. Patients reported an increase
in the use of faith practices for
coping (prayer and meditation), providing evidence for spiritual growth after MCS. SWB, RWB, and CSM, and their corresponding subscales were positively related to HRQOL revealing medium to large correlation coefficients and variances. Post MCS, the TAH patients’ mean scores decreased for SWB and RWB (religious comfort) and increased for RWB (religious strain), indicating some spiritual distress. The internal locus of control for TAH patients increased with significance. HMII patients reported a significant increase in adaptive
coping and “God” locus of control.
The results suggest that early spiritual assessment with MCS patients may promote more timely and effective responses to maladaptive and dysfunctional
coping. Patients who use their faith to cope (in distress or not) may also benefit from an increase in emotional and spiritual attention. Spiritual care providers who are knowledgeable about the MCS assessment, surgery, and recovery process could then provide interventions that build resilience and mediate improved outcomes through supportive and directed counseling.
The results of this study inform the future development of interdisciplinary plans of spiritual and emotional care for this patient population and for other chronic illness populations. Further examination may reveal how SWB, RWB and CSM improve HRQOL as well as highlight the unique support needs of HMII and TAH patients.

▼ Forskning om entreprenörskap fokuserar på framgång som ignorerar den höga felfrekvensen av Nya företag. Många nya företag misslyckas så hur entreprenörer hantera det när deras företag misslyckas? Framgångsrika entreprenörer prisar fördelarna med misslyckande som en värdefull lärare. Resultatet av misslyckande regelbundet fylld med ekonomiska, sociala, psykologiska och fysiska hälsoproblem. Syftet med denna forskning är att bedöma företagets misslyckande upplevelser för företagare, från det ögonblick resultatet genom att återhämtningen för att hantera företagande fel och avsluta för påverkan av den slutna företag. I denna forskning aspekter av livet som påverka av entreprenörs fel undersöka ekonomiskt, socialt och psykologiskt att belysa faktorer som kan påverka mängden av kostnaderna för ett misslyckande. Därefter beskriver forskningen hur entreprenörer lära av misslyckanden. Den presenterar på resultaten av företagets misslyckande, inklusive hantera fel och återhämtning tillsammans med kognitiva och beteendemässiga utfall.
Research on entrepreneurship focuses on success which ignores the high failure rate of new ventures. Many new ventures fail so how entrepreneurs deal with it when their venture fails? Successful entrepreneurs praising the advantages of failure as a valuable teacher. The result of failure is regularly filled with economic, social, psychological, and physical health disorder. The aim of this research is to assessment venture failure experiences for entrepreneurs, from the instant result through to recovery for coping with entrepreneurial failure and exit for impact of the closed venture. In this research, aspects of life affected by entrepreneurial failure examine economically, socially and psychologically in highlighting factors that may influence the amount of costs of failure. Next, the research describes how entrepreneurs learn from failure. It presents on the outcomes of venture failure, including coping with failure and recovery together with cognitive and behavioral outcomes. The main objective of the research study is to understand the failure from entrepreneurs who have experienced it and also to make a theoretical framework of failure based on entrepreneurial venture failure experiences. Every entrepreneur starts up a venture with high expectations of achieving success. Failure can be emotionally disturbing, devastating, painful, distressing and costly for the entrepreneur who may have to aspect the stigma of failure and the loss of reputation. The entrepreneur can get involved in grief, heartache, anxiety, depression, shame, rejection and discouragement (Politis & Gabrielsson, 2009). The purpose of the research is to investigate how entrepreneurs realize and react to venture failure. Moreover, entrepreneurs are looking for positive aspects of failure as enhancing experiences that help their coping with entrepreneurial failure, learning from failure, the willingness to begin a new venture and also trigger changes in upcoming decision-making.

▼ This dissertation examines the implications of envy
for the interplay between economic development, institutions, and
culture. It offers a unified theoretical framework which shows how
the two sides of envy, destructive and constructive, can give rise
to qualitatively different equilibria, depending on the economic,
institutional, and cultural environment. If investment
opportunities are low, inequality is high, property rights are
poorly protected, and social comparisons are strong, society is
likely to be in the "
fear equilibrium," in which better endowed
individuals restrain their investment to prevent destructive envy
of the relatively poor. Otherwise, the standard "keeping up with
the Joneses" competition arises, and envy is satisfied through
suboptimally high efforts. Economic growth expands the production
possibilities frontier and triggers an endogenous transition from
one equilibrium to the other causing a qualitative shift in the
relationship between envy and economic performance: envy-avoidance
behavior with its adverse effect on investment paves the way to
creative emulation. From a welfare perspective, the adoption of
better institutions that move the society away from the low-output
fear equilibrium need not be Pareto improving in the short run
since it unleashes the consumption externality, but in the long run
such policy is likely to increase welfare due to enhanced
productivity growth. The empirical part of the dissertation
examines the economic origins of the evil eye belief, a
superstition according to which envious people can cause harm by a
mere glance at coveted objects or their owners. The main hypothesis
is that this belief originated and persisted as a heuristic under
conditions in which destructive envy represents a real threat and
envy-avoidance strategies constitute a proper response to this
threat. Historically, rising wealth inequality, a natural
by-product of early economic development, might have increased the
risk of envy-induced destructive behavior leading to the emergence
of the evil eye belief. Evidence from the Standard Cross-Cultural
Sample shows that in small-scale preindustrial societies there is
indeed a robust positive association between the incidence of the
belief and various measures of wealth stratification.
