“…The demarcation between master's and doctoral candidates is particularly telling, with those engaged in doctoral endeavors experiencing pronounced anxiety and perfectionism-a vivid testament to the intensifying pressures inherent at the apex of educational pursuit. Simultaneously, the data unfurls a paradox; the formidable trek toward doctoral completion, though psychologically taxing, appears to be mitigated by a nuanced augmentation in flexibility (Lai & Yeung, 2023;Lee & Kim, 2018;Kim, 2017). This denotes a dialectical tension where enhanced anxiety might coexist with-or indeed serve as a crucible for-the development of adaptive capabilities, thus instilling a certain resilience within the academic fray (Yüceant, 2022;White & McCallum, 2021).…”

“…Particularly, within the Chinese postgraduate milieu, these revelations underscore an urgent requisite for an astute overhaul of prevailing pedagogical frameworks, ensuring that the fervent quest for knowledge does not inadvertently descend into the confining abyss of perfectionism (Liu, 2023;Gao, 2023;Chen, 2021). Recent academic endeavours have proliferated our understanding of perfectionism, revealing its multifaceted nature (Fisher et al, 2023;Akbay & Delibalta;Lee & Kim, 2018). It is imperative to discern between the laudable aspiration for excellence and the fallacious, often pernicious, chase for flawless precision.…”

Within the sphere of educational psychology, the impact of perfectionism on academic anxiety and flexibility has been closely examined, especially in the context of Chinese postgraduates. The current study analyzed these phenomena within a cohort of 218 postgraduates from a private international Chinese college in Thailand, reflecting an amalgam of Eastern academic culture and postgraduate educational expectations. Results indicated a notable degree of academic anxiety (X=3.70, SD=.75), alongside moderate levels of flexibility (X=2.94, SD=.84) and perfectionist behavior (X=3.23, SD=1.01). Disaggregating data by educational level, Masters students presented with moderate anxiety (X=3.38, SD=.87), low flexibility (X=2.53, SD=.74), and low perfectionism (X=2.74, SD=.66), whereas Ph.D. students exhibited significantly higher anxiety and perfectionism (X=4.51 and X=4.48, SD=.84 respectively), yet demonstrated greater flexibility (X=3.99, SD=.71). Gender and profession proved to be insubstantial factors in influencing these constructs. Contrastingly, educational level was a potent differentiator, with significant disparities evident. The interrelations highlighted a negative correlation between academic anxiety and flexibility (r=-.121), but a positive correlation between academic anxiety and perfectionist tendencies (r=.424). Flexibility and perfectionist behavior were also positively correlated (r=.153). To mitigate the adverse impacts of perfectionism, the study advocates for cognitive-behavioral interventions to reshape perfectionist thought patterns and bolster adaptive coping strategies. It encourages cultivating an educational ethos that emphasizes learning and psychological welfare over impeccable achievement and suggests normalizing mental health discourse within academic environments to alleviate the stigma surrounding perfectionism and anxiety.

The current study investigated the mediation effect of self-focused attention on the relationship between South Korean novice counselors' perfectionism and psychological burnout. We also examined whether cognitive emotion regulation strategies moderated the mediation effect of self-focused attention with a sample of 208 South Korean novice counselors. Moderated mediation was tested with the PRO-CESS 2.16.3 macro for SPSS and the index of moderated mediation. Bootstrapping analyses were used to examine the mediation effect of self-focus on the relationship between perfectionism and psychological burnout. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis was also conducted to examine the moderation of emotion regulation strategies. Findings indicate that self-focused attention partially mediated the relationship between perfectionism and psychological burnout. Moreover, the indirect effect of perfectionism on psychological burnout through self-focused attention varied depending on levels of adaptive emotion regulation strategies. We present implications for counseling and suggestions for future research in an international context.
