Research on american students has indicated that a subjective overachiever strives to attain outstanding performance but is also chronically plagued by self - doubt. The present investigation compared chinese college students in hong kong and singapore to their caucasian american counterparts in an attempt to examine the similarities and differences in subjective overachievement across cultures. Results supported the relevance of the subjective achievement experience in different cultures but also revealed important diffferences. Compared to american participants, chinese participants showed more ambivalence about the benefits of failure and they manifested higher levels of self - doubt as well as the tendency to discount ability under conditions of effort exertion. These cross - cultural differences persisted after controlling for individual differences in self - construals.
