A total of 528 students at the university of Tehran (274 females, 254 males) were selected by the randomized cluster sampling method. Participants completed the Tehran Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, Depression Anxiety Stress Scale, and Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale.
The results indicated that the hypothesized model had a good fit with the observed data. Other-oriented perfectionism, socially-prescribed perfectionism, and difficulty in emotion regulation showed a significantly positive correlation with depression and anxiety symptoms.
