The H&F-Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale 13 (H&F-MSP13): Construct and convergent validity

Introduction The Hewitt and Flett Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (HF range: 17–28) completed the Portuguese versions of HF SPP: EV = 16.3%, α = 0.695; OOP: EV = 10.8%, α = 0.709). The correlations between the Hu0026F-MSP13 scores and the matching scores of the Hu0026F-MPS were high (from r  = 0.745 to r  = 0.945, all P r  = 0.581/ r  = 0.636, respectively). The correlations similarities between the Hu0026F-MSP13 and Hu0026F-MSP dimensions and the F-MPS dimensions and total scores were also considerable. Conclusions The Hu0026F-MSP13 is a valid instrument to measure perfectionism that reveals convergent validity with the F-MPS, retaining the adequate psychometric properties of the Hu0026F-MPS and its administration is less time consuming.
