A randomized, controlled clinical trial was conducted to determine the efficacy of receiving feedback in a sample of maladaptive perfectionists. A total of 60 young adults were randomly assigned to a feedback intervention or control group. Hierarchical Linear Modeling was utilized to analyze the effects of perfectionism over time, as well as the effects of treatment condition on the relationship between perfectionism and outcomes. Measures of interest included emotional reactivity, self-esteem, and psychological distress. Findings revealed that providing feedback to maladaptive perfectionists reduced self-reported global symptomatic distress as well as emotional reactivity. The results are discussed in light of treatment implications, especially with regard to the manner in which perfectionists respond to therapeutic interventions. Overall, study findings suggest that a brief, low-cost feedback intervention is effective at decreasing psychological distress in maladaptive perfectionists and may serve as a beneficial precursor to individual therapy or counseling.
一项随机对照临床试验旨在确定在一组适应不良的完美主义者中接受反馈的效果。共有 60 名年轻人被随机分配到反馈干预组或对照组。分层线性模型被用于分析随着时间的推移完美主义的影响，以及治疗条件对完美主义与结果之间关系的影响。感兴趣的测量指标包括情绪反应、自尊和心理困扰。研究结果表明，为适应不良的完美主义者提供反馈可以减少自我报告的整体症状困扰和情绪反应。研究结果在治疗意义方面进行了讨论，特别是关于完美主义者对治疗干预的反应方式。总的来说，研究结果表明，简短、低成本的反馈干预措施可以有效降低适应不良的完美主义者的心理困扰，并且可以作为个体治疗或咨询的有益前奏。
