Keywords:
Perfectionism, students, psychological factors, personal characteristics, cognitive processes, emotional states, social factors, psychological well-being, academic performance.Abstract
This article examines the main psychological factors influencing the formation of perfectionism in students. The article analyzes students' personal characteristics (high self-demands, sensitivity to criticism, fear of failure), cognitive processes (striving for perfection, black-and-white thinking, overgeneralization), emotional states (anxiety, stress, guilt), and social factors (parental demands, teacher evaluations, peer influence). The impact of perfectionism on students' psychological well-being and academic performance is also considered.
