A meta-analysis of multidimensional perfectionism and impostor phenomenon
A meta -analysis is provided to disentangle the relationship between perfectionism and impostor phenomenon. Following a preregistered protocol, a systematic search provided 25 studies (N = 12,141) and 42 effect sizes. Perfectionistic strivings had a small positive relationship with imposter phenomenon ( r + =.15[.07, 0.23]) and perfectionistic concerns had a large positive relationship with imposter phenomenon ( r + =.61[.55, 0.65]). In turn, per…
A longitudinal study of perfectionism and orthorexia in exercisers
Research suggests that trait perfectionism and perfectionistic self-presentation are related to orthorexia - a pathological obsession with correct nutrition. However, no studies have examined these relationships over time or compared the influence of the two aspects of perfectionism on orthorexia. In the present study we sought to address these two issues. Gym members who engaged in high degrees of exercise were recruited via social media platfor…

Covid-19 Vaccine Hesitancy, Medical Mistrust, and Mattering in Ethnically Diverse Communities
Perfectionism, mattering, stress, and self-regulation of home learning of UK gifted and talented students during the Covid-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic forced the closure of schools in the UK and students had to study at home with limited access to the support they would have normally received. We designed this study to assess the experience of gifted and talented (GAT) students during this period and to identify factors related to their stress and self-regulation of learning. The factors we focused on were perfectionism and feelings of mattering. Three-hundred and eleven G…
Young people's perceptions of their parents' expectations and criticism are increasing over time
Recent evidence demonstrates rising self-oriented, other-oriented, and socially prescribed perfectionism among young people from the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada (Curran & Hill, 2019). One reason why perfectionism is increasing may be that rising competitiveness and individualism are requiring parents to engage in anxious, overly involved, and/or overly controlling forms of parenting. Yet, data to support this claim are limited and c…
A case for multiple pathways to increasing perfectionism
We respond to Soenens and Vansteenkiste's (2019) commentary on our meta-analysis (Curran & Hill, 2019) that evidenced increases in college students' perfectionism from 1989 to 2016. In speculating on possible reasons for the increase, we argued that increases in anxious and controlling parenting could partly account for this trend. Soenens and Vansteenkiste argue that in doing so we did not differentiate between parental control as structure and …

The relationship between perfectionistic self-presentation and reactions to impairment and disability following spinal cord injury
Univariate and multivariate relationships between perfectionistic self-presentation and reactions to impairment and disability following spinal cord injury were examined. A total of 144 adults with spinal cord injury ( M = 48.18 years old, SD = 15.96) completed self-report measures. Analyses revealed that, after controlling for time since injury and gender, perfectionistic self-presentation predicted six of eight reactions, shock, depression and …
Multidimensional Perfectionism and Burnout
A meta-analysis of research examining the relationships between multidimensional perfectionism and burnout is provided. In doing so, relationships before and after controlling for the relationship between dimensions of perfectionism were examined along with whether relationships were moderated by domain (work, sport, or education). A literature search yielded 43 studies ( N = 9,838) and 663 effect sizes. Meta-analysis using random-effects models …

The Politics of Drawing
Drawing has been largely neglected in discussions of visuality, conflict, and violence. In 2007, the International Criminal Court accepted 500 children's drawings depicting the conflict in Darfur as contextual evidence for war crime trials against Sudanese officials. Starting from this event, and the attention that the Darfuri children's drawings have garnered internationally, this article explores the role that drawings, and children's drawings …
Creating Change for Complex Children and Their Families
This is a beautifully written account of some high-quality therapeutic work taking place at The Croft, Cambridgeshire, England. This is an NHS residential (in-patient) unit for children with mental health problems and their families. The book contains some inspiring examples of the team's work, nicely illustrated throughout with fictionalised case studies. However, the book is very much a product of the unit itself, having been edited by the Dire…
Play therapy with sexually abused children
This paper draws on the author’s experience as a member of a team of social workers undertaking play therapy with sexually abused children. It outlines the theoretical rationale that informed the development of practice in which parents were included in therapeutic play sessions with their children. It goes on to examine two cases that illustrate some of the issues. Finally, this paper begins to develop a critique of practice that involves parent…
Issues facing brothers of sexually abused children
This paper draws on the author's experience of undertaking play therapy with the brothers of sexually abused children. It illustrates the range of difficulties that such boys may face and identifies implications for professional practice. Difficulties are understood as arising from the struggle to develop a coherent narrative about the abuse, often in the face of incomplete or contested information. The outcome is influenced by the nature of the …
Acid house and Thatcherism
From 1987 to 1990, hundreds of Acid House parties were held across Britain. These parties became the subject of an intense moral panic. The scale of the measures taken against these parties can be understood in terms of the disruptive presence they presented to Thatcherism—the hegemonic project built around Margaret Thatcher’s leadership of the Conservative Party. The successive Thatcher governments held jurisdiction over the territory of the UK …
Acid House and Thatcherism
This paper examines why the late 1980s youth subculture Acid House provoked a moral panic of the scale and intensity that it did. The subculture is conceived as presenting a disruptive presence to Thatcherism as an hegemonic project. The terms under which this occurred are examined through the themes of noise, the mob, and the disruption of bureaucratic authority. The presence of Acid House within the English countryside, and in particular the Ho…
No-one else could understand
Previous studies have shown that when a woman finds out about the sexual abuse of her children the consequences for her are serious and can represent a major life crisis. Women in this position frequently report a lack of professional understanding and support. \n \nThe current study explores the experiences of women attending a busy peer support group at the NSPCC in York. It demonstrates the vital role that peer support can play. It traces a va…
Oral pessimism and depressive symptoms
The need to examine alternative explanations for findings in psychoanalytic theory is often suggested but rarely practised. The aim of the present study was to examine Lewis' (1993) prediction that oral pessimism is important to the aetiology of depression within the context of social psychological, cognitive and personality explanations of depression. One hundred and sixty Northern Irish university students completed measures of depressive sympt…

Fossils in the Making
One of the first interdisciplinary discussions of taphonomy (the study of how fossil assemblages are formed) and paleoecology (the reconstruction of ancient ecosystems), this volume helped establish these relatively new disciplines. It was originally published as part of the influential Prehistoric Archeology and Ecology series. Taphonomy is plainly here to stay, and this book makes a first class introduction to its range and appeal.-Anthony Smit…
