“…On the basis of prior perfectionism-related findings (Schrijvers et al, 2010;Stahl et al, 2015;Tops et al, 2013), we expected to find a higher Pe amplitude for participants with high PSP than for those with low PSP. If this is a sign of PSPrelated variations in error-processing efficiency, it should be reflected in a greater number of correct decisions and a higher post-error accuracy (perhaps accompanied by post-error slowing) for high-PSP than for low-PSP participants.…”

“…A positive relationship between ECP and the Pe amplitude (e.g., Schrijvers et al, 2010;Tops et al, 2013) could be a sign of higher affective involvement after error commission among high-ECP participants. Stahl et al (2015) found both higher Pe amplitudes and higher post-error accuracy for high-PSP relative to low-PSP participants (i.e., a higher percentage of correct responses after error responses), which points to faster error evidence accumulation being used to improve performance after error commission. This finding has raised the questions of whether high-PSP participants show better error detection performance than low-PSP participants, and whether this is related to the Pe variations.…”

“…Although Stahl and colleagues did not reveal any significant ECP-Pe relationships, they demonstrated a reduced post-error accuracy for high-ECP participants, which is in line with the authors' errorprocessing avoidance hypothesis. In their study, pure-ECP participants (high ECP, low PSP) had reduced early errorprocessing activity (as indicated by the error negativity; for details, see Stahl et al, 2015), which was explained by pure-ECP participants' difficulty with shifting, or inability to shift, attention from task-unrelated to task-related cognitions (Moser, Moran, Schroder, Donnellan, & Yeung, 2013). This could be a result of worrying about being negatively evaluated (high ECP), yet simultaneously having low intrinsic motivation for performance improvement (low PSP).…”

“…If this is a sign of PSPrelated variations in error-processing efficiency, it should be reflected in a greater number of correct decisions and a higher post-error accuracy (perhaps accompanied by post-error slowing) for high-PSP than for low-PSP participants. Because ECP seems to affect task-specific attention (Moser et al, 2013) and emotional aspects of error processing (e.g., Stahl et al, 2015), we examined the moderating effects of ECP on the relationships between PSP and error correlates.…”

“…In healthy samples (Stahl, Acharki, Kresimon, Völler, & Gibbons, 2015;Tops, Koole, & Wijers, 2013) as well as clinical samples (Pieters et al, 2007;Schrijvers, De Bruijn, Destoop, Hulstijn, & Sabbe, 2010), variations have been observed in the neural correlates of error processing as a function of perfectionism.…”

Error detection is required in order to correct or avoid imperfect behavior. Although error detection is beneficial for some people, for others it might be disturbing. We investigated Gaudreau and Thompson's (Personality and Individual Differences, 48, 532−537, 2010) model, which combines personal standards perfectionism (PSP) and evaluative concerns perfectionism (ECP). In our electrophysiological study, 43 participants performed a combination of a modified Simon task, an error awareness paradigm, and a masking task with a variation of stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA; 33, 67, and 100 ms). Interestingly, relative to low-ECP participants, high-ECP participants showed a better post-error accuracy (despite a worse classification accuracy) in the highvisibility SOA 100 condition than in the two low-visibility conditions (SOA 33 and SOA 67). Regarding the electrophysiological results, first, we found a positive correlation between ECP and the amplitude of the error positivity (Pe) under conditions of low stimulus visibility. Second, under the condition of high stimulus visibility, we observed a higher Pe amplitude for high-ECP-low-PSP participants than for high-ECP-high-PSP participants. These findings are discussed within the framework of the error-processing avoidance hypothesis of perfectionism (Stahl, Acharki, Kresimon, Völler, & Gibbons, International Journal of Psychophysiology, 97, 153-162, 2015).

Self-control is protective against psychopathology in childhood. However, too much self-control, namely overcontrol, potentiates risk. Overcontrol is a constellation of child characteristics related to high need for control, perfectionism, inflexibility, social comparison, and performance monitoring and is a transdiagnostic risk factor associated with psychiatric disorders across the lifespan. However, there are no quick and developmentally appropriate screeners to identify overcontrol in early childhood, when overconrol purportedly becomes stable. The current study validated the Overcontrol in Youth Checklist (OCYC) in 4-7 year old children and examined relationships with cognitive, social, and psychiatric, neural and behavioral indicators. The OCYC demonstrated good psychometrics and was associated with deficits in cognitive shifting, social functioning, and preschool psychopathology. Higher OCYC scores were associated with a blunted ΔERN, an indicator of performance monitoring in preschoolers. Findings demonstrate the OCYC to be a developmentally valid measure of overcontrol that identifies this transdiagnostic risk factor early in development.Terms of use and reuse: academic research for non-commercial purposes, see here for full terms. https://www.springer.com/aamterms-v1 *
