To the extent that the handicapping is perceived to be intentional and raises questions about particular aspects of the handicapper's character (perhaps because observers infer that the behavior reflects a pattern of similar behavior), the handicapper is perceived in a negative way.
Although the specific nature of the handicaps employed in these studies differed substantially, these results suggest that the benefits of handicapping in terms of attributions for a performance outcome may be offset by less favorable inferences of the handicapper's dispositional characteristics.
For example, it may be that when the handicap is perceived to be unintentional or when observers believe that the handicapping is an isolated, non-repetitive behavior, observers may suspend their tendency to infer negative dispositions.

These distinctions are very relevant to our understanding of how both self and social aspects of perfectionism cooperate to bring about negative symptoms.
  Self-oriented refers to perfectionistic behavior that is directed at one’s self, other—oriented   refers to directing such behaviour towards significant others, and the socially prescribed perfectionist believes that they are the subject of significant other’s perfectionistic tendencies (Hewitt and Flett, 1991b).

 SELF-HANDICAPPING: AN EVALUATION AND COMPARISON OF HONORS AND TRADITIONAL COLLEGE STUDENTS` UTILIZATION
Self-reported handicaps are claims that a condition exists that is impeding to performance that may or may not be true.
Another effect on the use of handicapping is the phenomenon of egocentric ideation where the adolescent feels that all eyes are on him.
In any task that is important to an individual there is risk of either enhancing or maintaining one's self esteem in a successful attempt, or damaging one's self-perception in the case of failure (Deppe, Hirt and Gordon, 1991).

 Psychological Record, The: Effects of situational self-handicapping and state self-confidence on the physical performance of young participants
Self-- handicapping has been theorized to control the attributions of others with regard to one's performance outcome through either an augmenting or discounting function (Kelly, 1972).
Although the short-term benefits of self-- handicapping include reduced psychological stress resulting from personal failure as well as an illusion of maintained skill and ability, these benefits come at the long-term expense of performance success.
The act of self-handicapping involves the positing of claimed or behavioral barriers to performance that are both self-debilitating (i.e., decrease the probability of success) and self-protective (i.e., decrease stress through nonability attributions for failure) (Berglas & Jones, 1978).

An important idea that you should grasp is that the self comprises three interrelated components (the actual self, ideal self, and ought self) and that individuals are motivated to resolve discrepancies between these components and that through self-regulation we reconcile our behavior with the expectations of others.
Three components of the self (actual, ideal, ought) are presented and it is shown how self-esteem is related to the balance between these three components.
The role of the self and memory is also discussed, showing how one's self-concept serves as a filter for self-relevant information.

 NASSM 2005 Conference
Self (1990) echoed this sentiment by acknowledging that environments with high public notoriety would increase the likelihood of engaging in self-handicapping behaviour.
Protecting public attributions of the self could reflect negatively on the organization, when the individual self-handicaps in the external environment, and could reflect negatively on the individual and the organization when self-handicapping occurs internally, with potentially compounding and harmful effects on organizational success.
One of the major paradoxes associated with self-handicapping is that this self-protective strategy may become distinctly self-defeating once the focus shifts to stable or dispositional aspects of the person.

But to appear inferior and deviant when the intoxicant has inflicted a handicap upon her, does not mean that she herself is really inferior and deviant.

A new University of Dayton study indicates that the tendency to create a handicap for yourself appears to develop by the sixth grade and is most evident among boys.
On the other hand, third-grade boys with high self esteem tended to try to do their best, regardless of when they took the self-esteem test.
The results: Sixth-grade boys generally practiced less than girls, unless they scored high on the self-esteem test right before the practice session.
