“…The results of extant research suggest that maladaptive perfectionism has significant direct and indirect (moderation and moderation-mediation) effects on experiencing bio-psycho-social consequences in various kinds of stressful transactions (Hewitt, 2020;Linnett & Kibowski, 2020). It contributes to signs of burnout, emotional dysregulation, lower levels of emotional wellbeing, interpersonal problems, and generally heightened stress levels (Kamushadze, Martskvishvili, Mestvirishvili & Odilavadze, 2021;Madigan, 2019;Moate et al, 2019). Likewise, numerous studies have decisively demonstrated a positive link between maladaptive perfectionism and various psychopathological categories, such as eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, agoraphobia, panic disorder, social phobia, narcissistic personality disorder, and depression (Limburg, Watson, Hagger & Egan, 2017;Overholser & Dimaggio, 2020;Smith et al, 2022;Starley, 2019).…”
