Personal Responsibility in Early Adulthood as a Predictor of Perfectionism and Psychological Well-Being

Abstract

The article is devoted to the results of a study that revealed significant relationships between responsibility and such phenomena as perfectionism and psychological well-being of the individual. The results of the study allow us to attribute responsibility to the fundamental properties of the individual. The formation of responsible behavior is associated with normal (healthy) perfectionism and a subjective sense of well-being. Low levels of responsibility reveal a link with neurotic perfectionism and personality in General. At the same time, it was found that a high level of responsibility can occur with neurotic perfectionism and a low level of well-being.
