Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate effects of an integrative motivation management program on perfectionism, stress and subjective well-being among female university students with maladaptive perfectionism tendencies. To this end, female college students who ranked in the 75% on ‘perfectionist tendencies’ and ‘negative results’ subscales of perfectionism questionnaire were recruited. Participants were randomly assigned to an experimental group(n=15) and a wait-control group(n=15). Those in the experimental group completed a total of six sessions in three weeks(twice a week), with each session lasting 80 minutes. All participants completed pre-test, post-test and a 4-week follow-up test. Scores of perfectionism, perceived stress, and negative affects in the experimental group were significantly decreased compared to those in the wait-control group. These effects persisted at the follow-up test. Scores of satisfaction with life and positive affect in the experimental group were significantly increased compared to those in the wait-control group. These effects persisted in the follow-up test. Based on these research results, significance of this study, limitations of this study, and suggestions for follow-up research are discussed.
