Core Tip
Core Tip: Consistent with biopsychosocial and public health promotion perspectives on health, comprehending the consequences of perfectionism for health and well-being necessitates unifying instead of soloing studies on such linked factors and examining them in their particular contexts. As a transdiagnostic process, that perfectionism is hard to change. Consequently, treatments must be customized to address perfectionists' cognitive and emotion control difficulties, and adolescents meta-cognitive views about ability, self, and meaning of failure.
