Abstract in brief

  • This meta-analysis examined how different types of perfectionism relate to burnout, finding that perfectionistic concerns are strongly linked to higher burnout, while perfectionistic strivings have little or no protective effect.
  • Controlling for the different dimensions of perfectionism showed that pure perfectionistic strivings might actually have a more negative or less harmful relationship with burnout.
  • The study suggests future research should explore why these relationships exist, use long-term studies, and create interventions to lessen burnout driven by perfectionistic concerns.]
