Abstract
This study examined the associations between family environment factors and perfectionist types among 491 Hong Kong high school students. Participants who reported being from a family oriented to high achievement were more likely classified as perfectionists, and more so maladaptive perfectionists. Other family environment factors also differentiated adaptive from maladaptive perfectionists. The three perfectionist types were also compared on self-efficacy, self-esteem, rebellious and antisocial behaviors. Further results and implications are provided.
