This article was also part of a special issue: www.mdpi.com/journal/educ.... Edited by Professor Alison Voice of the University of Leeds.

This article was a joint effort, written in collaboration with @abdnpsych.bsky.social, @standrewspsyneuro.bsky.social and St. Andrews' School of Physics and Astronomy.

Read our new paper! In this article we run interviews with students in physics and astronomy, finding reports of imposter syndrome. We then discuss a short intervention we created to try and help students feel more comfortable talking about their experience. www.mdpi.com/2227-7102/15...

Imposter phenomenon is common in physics undergraduate students. See here our short post about imposter phenomenon for Physics Higher Education Research Nuggets: per-he.org/an-intervent...
