• Perfectionism, self-efficacy, and aspiration level: differential effects of perfectionistic striving and self-criticism after success and failure (2008, background): “But what happens if perfectionists fail to fulfill their aspirations, and what if they succeed? So far, four studies have investigated how perfectionists react to experimental manipulations of success and failure (Anshel & Mansouri, 2005; Besser et al., 2004; Stoeber, Harris, & Moon, 2007; Stoeber, ”
• Perfectionism, and Cognitions, Affect, Self-esteem, and Physiological Reactions in a Performance Situation (2008, methodology): “120 More recently, Besser et al. (2004) conducted an experiment in which students 121 who varied in levels of trait perfectionism performed a laboratory task of varying 122 levels of difficulty.”
• Relations between multidimensional perfectionism and burnout in junior-elite male athletes. (2009, background): “This is consistent with a view that self-oriented perfectionism is a vulnerability factor that predisposes individuals to debilitating outcomes unless third order variables moderate its effects ( Besser, Flett, & Hewitt, 2004 ).”
• Perfectionism and burnout in junior elite soccer players: The mediating influence of unconditional self-acceptance (2008, background): “For example, the experience of stressors (Hewitt & Flett, 1993), perceptions of failure (Flett, Besser, Davis, & Hewitt, 2003; Flett, Hewitt, Oliver, & Macdonald, 2002) and negative feedback (Besser, Hewitt, & Flett, 2004) have been found to moderate the effects of the disposition.”
