The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of perfectionism and self-efficacy on the depression levels and task performance levels. Total 359 undergraduate students were participated in the study l; 232 males and 126 females. 91 male students and 57 female students were participated in the experiment(study 2). The result of data analysis on the study 1 showed that there were significant positive correlation personal standards, concern over mistakes and parental criticism factor with depression. However, there was no significant correlation between depression and organization and parental expectation factor. In the study 2(experiment), subjects were divided in four groups by concern over mistaskes(high-low) and self-efficacy level(high- low). 2-way ANOVA was used for the data analysis. As the result, in high-perfectionism, and high self-efficacy group, task error rate was low but high-perfectionism and low self-efficacy group showed highest error rate. The result of analysis of covariance on the post-task depression showed a significant interaction effect between the two independent variables. That is, in the high self-efficacy group, even perfectionism is high, depression was not increased. On the contrary, in the low self-efficacy group, the group of high perfectionism experienced depression remarkably. This findings suggest that self-efficacy can intermediate when perfectionism is affecting on depression and task performance.
