• Measuring Perfectionism in Sport, Dance, and Exercise: Review, Critique, Recommendations (2016, background): “…scale has been shown to be a reliable and valid indicator of perfectionistic concerns (Stoeber, Stoll, et al., 2009; Zarghmi et al., 2010; see also Gotwals et al., 2012), the scale captures negative reactions to imperfection rather than perfectionistic concerns per se, that is, anxiety and worry…”
• Multidimensional Perfectionism in Sport: A Meta-Analytical Review (2018, methodology): “Since the two reviews, Hill (2014, 2017) has also questioned the conclusions of Stoeber (2011) and Gotwals et al. (2012) regarding PS on the grounds that they pertain primarily to residual PS, not PS.”
