Pleasure from Activities and Self-Defeating Personality
As predicted, people who scored higher on a measure of Self-defeating Personality reported experiencing less pleasure and enjoyment from individual and social activities as well as from personal accomplishments. The results were consistent with the idea that these people maintain a self-image of "loser" by minimizing or discounting positives in their lives. Results were also consistent with prior research showing a positive relationship between s…
Assessment of Individual Differences in Preferences for Holistic-Analytic Strategies
Recently, it has become more acceptable to assume two different types of cognitive processes: analytic, rule-based, and sequential versus holistic, episode-based, or simply "nonanalytic." Results of both educational research and cognitive laboratory research suggest the presence of a holistic-analytic continuum of individual differences in cognitive functioning. The present investigation was designed to compare several potential measures of the h…
Self-Defeating Personality and Strategies for Coping with Stress
People who scored higher on a measure of self-defeating personality also scored low on ego-strength, showed an external locus of control, and used less adaptive coping strategies than those who scored lower. These strategies (denial, mental disengagement, alcohol and drug use) were viewed as helping to perpetuate their positions as victims
The Role of Just World Belief and Anger Issues in Self-Defeating Personality
Persons who scored higher on a measure of self-defeating personality did not believe in a just world as implied in the writings of such theorists as Reik (1941); however, they had a greater awareness of anger and feelings of mistrust and suspiciousness of others, held anger in, and were self-critical. These latter findings are consistent with conclusions regarding masochism proposed in 1991 by Glickauf-Hughes and Wells
Correlations between Self-Handicapping and Self-Defeating Personality
In this study scores on Strube's self-handicapping scale were correlated with scores on Schill's self-defeating personality scale. Berglas believes there are subtypes of self-defeating personality and that his concept of self-handicapping should be correlated with the three criteria which represent a self-protective component of self-defeating personality. Some support for Berglas' proposition was found, particularly for men. However, correlation…
Self-Defeating Personality and Perceptions of Family Environment
People scoring higher on a scale of self-defeating personality perceived their family environments as lacking cohesiveness. Men also perceived their family environments as discouraging open expression of feelings, being unconcerned about school and work achievement, and providing no ethical or religious values. Results were seen as lending validity to clinical theories of masochism which relate lack of family support and lack of reinforcement for…
