Abstract

Maladaptive perfectionism has been associated with certain mental health problems. Moreover, studies suggest that the development of perfectionism can be attributed to childhood experiences and, more specifically, to parenting styles. (1) Background: The aims of the present study were first to examine the relationship of perfectionism to perceived parenting and current symptoms of depression and anxiety and, secondly, to study the effectiveness of a group CBT intervention program for high perfectionism; (2) Methods: Participants were 81 young Greek adults with relatively high scores in perfectionism. They were randomly allocated to two conditions: either the intervention group (IG; n = 40) or a non-active control group (CG; n = 41). The intervention group received a CBT intervention of 10 weekly sessions, while assessments were made in two time points for both groups; (3) Results: There was significant correlation of perfectionism with perceived parental indifference, abuse, and overcontrol as well as measures of anxiety and depression. Results showed significant decrease in perfectionism and other symptoms in the IG. Although perceived paternal indifference and abuse could predict perfectionism at pre-intervention, no pre-intervention variable could predict the perfectionism intervention outcome; (4) Conclusions: Overall, the study suggests that maladaptive perfectionism is associated with perceived negative parenting and current anxiety and depression and that a group CBT intervention can address specific dimensions of maladaptive perfectionism.

对适应不良完美主义的随机对照CBT干预:结果和预测因素
适应不良的完美主义与某些心理健康问题有关。此外,研究表明,完美主义的发展可以归因于童年经历,更具体地说,是父母的养育方式。(1)背景:本研究的目的首先是研究完美主义与感知父母教养和当前抑郁和焦虑症状的关系,其次是研究高完美主义群体CBT干预方案的有效性;(2)方法:以81名完美主义得分较高的希腊青年为研究对象。他们被随机分配到两组:干预组(IG;n = 40)或非活性对照组(CG;N = 41)。干预组接受每周10次的CBT干预,两组在两个时间点进行评估;(3)结果:完美主义与父母冷漠、虐待、过度控制感知以及焦虑、抑郁测量存在显著相关。结果显示,IG组的完美主义和其他症状明显减少。虽然感知的父亲冷漠和虐待可以预测干预前的完美主义,但没有干预前变量可以预测完美主义的干预结果;(4)结论:总体而言,本研究表明适应不良完美主义与感知负性养育和当前焦虑和抑郁有关,群体CBT干预可以解决适应不良完美主义的特定维度。
