• Cognitive Links Between Fear Of Failure And Perfectionism (2007, background): “Finally, although perfectionism and FF are both conceptualized as general dispositions and instructions for the present study did not reflect any contextual-specificity, some recent evidence suggests that perfectionism scores may be somewhat contextdependent ( Dunn, Gotwals, & Dunn, 2005 ).”
• A Multi-Method Multi-Analytic Approach to Establishing Internal Construct Validity Evidence: The Sport Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale 2 (2009, background): “This could limit the degree to which a full understanding of athletes' perfectionist orientations can be attained because empirical research has revealed that perfectionism may be best conceptualized and measured as a domain-specific construct (see Dunn, Gotwals, & Causgrove Dunn, 2005 ; Mitchelso”
• Perfectionism and Performance (2012, unknown): “This is important because research comparing athletes’ levels of perfectionism across different domains (sport, school, general life) found that athletes show significantly higher levels of perfectionism in sport than at school and in general life (Dunn et al., 2005).”
• Measuring Perfectionism in Sport, Dance, and Exercise: Review, Critique, Recommendations (2016, background): “Athletes, for example, have shown higher perfectionism in sports than in other areas of life (Dunn et al., 2005), and the same can be expected from dancers regarding perfectionism in dance (cf.”
• Positive Conceptions of Perfectionism: Approaches, Evidence, Challenges (2006, unknown): “While particularly relevant in educational settings and at the work-place, individual differences in perfectionism play a major role also in sport and exercise (e.g., Anshel & Eom, 2003; Dunn, Gotwals, & Dunn, 2005).”
• Establishing construct validity evidence for the Sport Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale. (2006, methodology): “However, if the social context of performance is important, or if perfectionism is indeed a domain-specific construct (see Dunn et al., 2005; Mitchelson & Burns, 1998; Slaney, Rice, & Ashby, 2002), then researchers may wish to investigate whether there is value in differentiating between significa”
• Are perfectionistic strivings in sport adaptive? A systematic review of confirmatory, contradictory, and mixed evidence. (2012, background): “Conclusion Perfectionism in sport is an important topic for both basic research and applied sport psychology because athletes tend to endorse perfectionistic tendencies to a greater degree in sport than in other achievement domains (Dunn et al., 2005).”
• The dual nature of perfectionism in sports: relationships with emotion, motivation, and performance (2011, background): “Consequently, measures of general perfectionism may not capture individual differences in perfectionism in sport (see also McArdle, 2010; Dunn, Craft, Causgrove Dunn, & Gotwals, 2011; Dunn et al., 2005).”
