Abstract
Background: The Perfectionistic Self-Presentation Scale (PSPS) is a self-reported 27-item measure that assesses the interpersonal aspect of perfectionism. It indicates how individuals tend to present themselves as perfect to others. Objectives: The aim of this study was to translate and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Perfectionistic PSPS in an adult sample. Methods: The research sample included 332 adults aged 18 to 53 years old residing in Tehran who completed the PSPS scale. After the translation and back-translation process, the construct validity of the PSPS was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis as well as divergent and convergent validity. Internal consistency reliability was conducted to evaluate the reliability. Data analysis was performed using SPSS (version 22) software and LISREL (version 8.8). Results: The three-dimensional factor structure with all 27 items was confirmed based on the fit index results and their appropriate values. Internal consistency for the total score, perfectionistic self-promotion, non-display of imperfection, and non-disclosure of imperfection scales were 0.94, 0.90, 0.89, and 0.74, respectively. Conclusions: The present study showed that the Persian version of the PSPS had appropriate validity and reliability among the Iranian adult population.
