Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (MPS)
The MPS is a 35-item self-report measure of perfectionism across six domains: concern over mistakes, personal standards, parental expectations, parental criticism, doubt about actions, and organization. Developed by Frost and colleagues in 1990, it is the most comprehensive multidimensional perfectionism measure, distinguishing adaptive from maladaptive perfectionism and identifying perfectionism as transdiagnostic risk factor in depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and obsessive-compulsive pathology.
