description Imposter syndrome is a psychological state in which people express doubts about their achievements and abilities. The relationship between imposter syndrome and sociodemographic and psychological variables was evaluated through a cross-sectional study in women residing in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru. A questionnaire was applied, Imposter Phenomenon Scale, Depression Scale, Anxiety Inventory and Insomnia Severity Index. 75% present imposter syndrome, 70% anxiety, 50% insomnia and 36% depression. Two multivariate models show that being a researcher or having a managerial position, children and being married are predictors for imposter syndrome. This situation can hinder their growth and make it difficult for them to accept management positions.

Se evaluó la relación entre el síndrome del impostor con variables sociodemográficas y psicológicas mediante un estudio transversal en mujeres que residen en Argentina, Chile, Colombia, México y Perú (N=430). Se aplicó un cuestionario que evaluó el síndrome del impostor, nivel de depresión, ansiedad e insomnio. El estudio reveló que el 75% de las participantes presentó el síndrome del impostor, 70% ansiedad, 50% insomnio y 36% depresión. Dos modelos multivariados evidenciaron que ser investigadora o tener un puesto directivo y tener hijos, son predictores para el síndrome del impostor. Esta situación puede mermar su crecimiento y obstaculizar su crecimiento profesional.Le syndrome de l’imposteur est un état psychologique dans lequel les gens expriment des doutes quant à leurs réalisations et leurs capacités.
