Impact of Coeducation on "Fear of Success" Imagery Expressed by Male and Female High School Students
Winchel, Ronald; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, 66, 5, 726-30, Oct 74

It appears, however, that the motive is largely formed before a girl reaches high school and that females who have not learned to avoid success in the presence of male classmates in elementary school do not fear success.
