摘要：The aim of the study was to explore the psychometric properties of the positive and negative perfectionism (PANP) on the Jordanian students. The first sample ( N = 485) students, all of them completed the scale of (PANP) in its original version after performing the translation procedures and verifying the content. The second sample ( N = 353) was used to investigate the confirmatory factor analysis, while the third sample ( N = 487) students (males = 254, females = 233) completed the revised positive and negative perfectionism scale (RPNPS) and the depression anxiety stress scale-21 (DASS-21). The results of factor analysis and Pearson correlation coefficient showed that the scale of (RPNPS) enjoyed good stability with two valid separate factors, as well as there were a negative relationship between positive perfectionism (PP) and negative perfectionism (NP), depression and anxiety. While there were a positive relationship between (NP), depression and anxiety. The results of multivariate analysis revealed that there were significant differences between Arts and Sciences specialization over (PP) and (NP). Additionally, the results showed effect for the interaction between gender and specialization upon (PP), (NP), depression and anxiety. Finally, there were no significant effects for gender on all dependent variables.
