Document Summary

If you"re only psp, then, you"re fine : see how only x1 is varying with y. How do we measure it: use questionnaires, 4, 5, 2*, 4, 5, 2, 4, psp = item 1, 3, and 5, damn, i kind of have scp lol, these two are highly correlated remember this! Scp higher negative affect and unrelated to academic ach. Psp higher academic ach: parental expectations child psp ac. Psp in this case is a protective factor. Differentiating the two types in : academic associations, psp, higher exam performance (consistent finding, better gpa and grades, more hours in studying, higher reasoning test scores, scp, neg associated with academic performance. We only know that psp are doing better. Sometimes scp do better than just general non-perfectionists, but never better than psp: less willing to seek help due to non-disclosure of imperfection. Not even really upset if they fail. They aren"t showing differences from the average person!
