完美主義和學生的學業動機、自我尊重及幸福感應有重要關聯。本研究旨在探討大學生的完美主義(包括自我和他人導向)與學業動機(內在與外在)、自尊及個人幸福感之間的關係。研究參與者樣本為台灣南部國立大學的四百零五名大學生。結果顯示，自我導向的完美主義與學業動機的關聯性較強，他人導向的完美主義與學業動機的關聯性較弱。自我和他人導向完義主義得分愈高的學生，具有較高的自尊。此外，自我導向的完義主義和整體幸福感有顯著正相關，但他人導向的完義主義和整體幸福感無顯著關聯性。研究發現提供完美主義傾向與自我決定理論有關的變項（包括學業動機、自尊及多重幸福感等）的實徵證據。在教育啟發方面，本研究指出大學生之自我導向的完義主義，有助於提高其學業動機、提昇自尊，以及促進幸福感。

Perfectionism has shown to be associated with students’ academic motivation, self- esteem, and well-being. The current research aimed to explore the relations of undergraduates’ perfectionism (self-oriented perfectionism and other-oriented perfectionism) to their intrinsic and extrinsic academic motivation, self-esteem, and well-being. Participants were four hundred and five undergraduate students at a national university in Southern Taiwan via convenient sampling. Self-reported scales were administrated during class. The results showed that self-oriented perfectionism rather than other-oriented perfectionism was more related to participants’ academic motivation. Both self-oriented perfectionism and other-oriented perfectionism were positively correlated with self-esteem. Participants with higher levels of self-oriented perfectionism reported a greater sense of well-being. However, no significant relationships were found between other-oriented perfectionism and three indicators of well-being. The present findings provide empirical evidence for the connections between perfectionism and three correlates of self-determination theory. With respect to educational implications, this research indicates that self-oriented perfectionism may be helpful in enhancing academic motivation, facilitating self-esteem, and promoting well-being among college students.
