Women Are More Likely to Be Perfectionists

Wednesday, September 09, 2009

A study of 288 employed American adults published in the Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology^ found that more women than men felt they did not meet their own high standards either at work or at home. 38% of women and 24% of men said their job performance did not meet their own standards. 30% of women felt they were failing to meet their home and family commitments at a high enough standard, compared to 17% of men.


Hmmmm.... where do you fit on the scale??
