From our friend ChatGPT (Which looks an awful lot like he uses Wikipedia, too ...): Impostor syndrome is a psychological phenomenon where individuals are unable to internalize their successes and persistently doubt their abilities, and fear being exposed as a "fraud". It can lead individuals to believe that their accomplishments were due to luck or external factors, and not because of their own skills or qualifications.
People with impostor syndrome often feel like they are not as competent as others perceive them to be, and fear that they will be found out as a fraud. This can lead to anxiety, stress, and can even hold them back from pursuing new opportunities or reaching their full potential.
It's important to note that impostor syndrome can affect anyone, regardless of their level of success or education. It's also common among high-achieving individuals, and many successful people have reported experiencing impostor syndrome at some point in their lives.
