Perfectionism in children and their parents: A developmental analysis.

Abstract: Recent research by Dweck and associates has shown that feedback that focuses on the attributes of a child rather than the achievement process can promote a sense of contingent self-worth (Kamins & Dweck, 1999;Mueller & Dweck, 1998). Remarkably, this research has shown that even

“…First, we still know little about how individual differences in perfectionism develop over a person's life. There is general agreement that perfectionism has its roots in childhood development and that parents play a key role in the development of general perfectionism (for reviews, see Flett, Hewitt, Oliver, & Macdonald, 2002;Stoeber & Childs, in press) and perfectionism in sport (Appleton, Hall, & Hill, 2010;Sapieja, Dunn, & Holt, 2011) are factors that contribute to the development of perfectionistic concerns (e.g., Soenens et al, 2008), it is unclear how parents contribute to the development of perfectionistic strivings. Findings from a study by Rice, Lopez, and Vergara (2005) suggest that parental expectations (parents expecting their children to be perfect) lead to perfectionistic strivings whereas parental criticism (parents criticizing their children if they are not perfect) leads to perfectionistic concerns (see also McArdle & Duda, 2008).…”

“…Nous n'avons cependant trouvé aucune étude ayant examiné cette question; nous nous y intéresserons donc dans la présente étude. Cela dit, des études ont montré que le degré d'exigences parentales était lié au développement d'un perfectionnisme négatif chez les enfants (Flett, Hewitt, Oliver et Macdonald, 2002;Frost, Marten, Lahart et Rosenblate, 1990;Hamachek, 1978;Slaney et Ashby, 1996 Beck (1976), dysfonctionnel sur le plan cognitif. Une composante importante du perfectionnisme négatif est le sentiment de l'écart entre les standards de performance poursuivis et leur atteinte s'exprimant par une sensibilité élevée à l'erreur et le sentiment de ne pas avoir le droit d'en commettre.…”

“…Cette dimension est considérée comme un indicateur fiable d'un perfectionnisme négatif et a été corrélée avec la détresse psychologique (Rice, Vergara et Aldea, 2006). Selon plusieurs auteurs (Flett et al, 2002;Frost et al, 1990;Hamachek, 1978;Slaney et Ashby, 1996), un contexte où les enfants sont exposés sur plusieurs années à un climat émotionnel qui souligne les conséquences négatives de faire des erreurs et où leurs parents les placent dans des situations qui mettent en avant l'atteinte de standards élevés favoriserait le développement d'un perfectionnisme négatif.…”

“…Parental psychological control may cause adolescents to be unable to achieve their own needs and desires, which may eventually lead to high depression, low sense of security and belongings [47,48]. Moreover, according to the psychodynamic theory of depression and the social expectation model of perfectionism [49,50], lonely adolescents tend to possess negative cognition and attribution styles (e.g. low self-esteem, high self-criticism, and more threaten assessment of general life events) [51].…”
