The failure mindset coping model. All connections from previous minimodels are modeled simultaneously, leading to the emergence of two pathways. On the right, growth mindset and mastery goal orientations are linked to more positive long-term outcomes through a challenge-engaging disposition, controllable attributions, and adaptive coping. On the left, a fixed mindset and performance goal orientations are related to more negative long-term outcomes via interaction with fear of failure, challenge avoidance, uncontrollable attributions, and maladaptive coping. All relationships (solid arrows) represent predicted relationships between constructs in undergraduate STEM contexts. However, all relationships are supported by previous work outside undergraduate STEM contexts (see Supplemental Figures).
