Abstract

The present study examined whether cultural differences in different dimensions of perfectionism exist and whether different dimensions of perfectionism (i.e., rigid and self-critical perfectionism) predicted different dimensions of test anxiety while controlling for depression in a sample of Canadian and Singapore higher education students. In addition, culture was examined to determine whether it served as a moderator variable in the relationship between different dimensions of perfectionism and different dimensions of test anxiety. The present study was grounded in DiBartolo and Rendón’s cross-cultural framework for conducting intra- and intercultural research in the area of perfectionism. The sample for the study included 1,095 undergraduate students. Perfectionism, test anxiety, and depression measures were administered to the students online. The results of mean and covariance analyses found the perfectionism measure was invariant across Canadian and Singapore students. In addition, the results of latent mean analyses found no significant differences on the different dimensions of perfectionism between Canadian and Singapore students. The results of analyses of variance also found no significant differences in different ethnic groups on the different dimensions of perfectionism in Canada and Singapore. Furthermore, the results of five hierarchical regression analyses found self-critical perfectionism explained unique variance in the five different test anxiety dimensions while controlling for depression, and culture did not serve as a moderator variable in the relationship between the different dimensions of perfectionism and test anxiety. Implications of the findings are discussed.

在控制抑郁的情况下,完美主义的维度是否能预测考试焦虑的维度?
本研究以加拿大和新加坡高等教育学生为样本,考察了完美主义不同维度的文化差异是否存在,以及完美主义的不同维度(即刻板和自我批评的完美主义)是否预测了考试焦虑的不同维度,同时控制了抑郁。此外,还对文化进行了研究,以确定它是否是完美主义不同维度和考试焦虑不同维度之间关系的调节变量。本研究基于DiBartolo和Rendón在完美主义领域进行跨文化和内部研究的跨文化框架。该研究的样本包括1095名本科生。在网上对学生进行完美主义、考试焦虑和抑郁测试。均值和协方差分析的结果发现,完美主义测量在加拿大和新加坡学生中是不变的。此外,潜在均值分析的结果发现,加拿大和新加坡学生在完美主义的不同维度上没有显著差异。方差分析结果还发现,在加拿大和新加坡,不同种族在完美主义的不同维度上没有显著差异。此外,五项分层回归分析的结果发现,自我批评完美主义在控制抑郁的同时,解释了五个不同考试焦虑维度的独特差异,而文化并不是完美主义不同维度与考试焦虑关系的调节变量。讨论了研究结果的含义。
