Definition of inferiority complex in English English dictionary: Someone who has an inferiority complex feels that they are of less worth or importance than other people. A persistent sense of inadequacy or a tendency to self-diminishment, sometimes resulting in excessive aggressiveness through overcompensation. a continuous feeling that you are much less important, clever etc than other people. Acute sense of personal inferiority, often resulting in either timidity or (through overcompensation) exaggerated aggressiveness. Though once a standard psychological concept, particularly among followers of Alfred Adler, it has lost much of its usefulness through imprecise popular misuse; strong feelings of insecurity and inadequacy which influence all of a person's interactions; a sense of personal inferiority arising from conflict between the desire to be noticed and the fear of being humiliated
