Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to determine and compare the positive and negative perfectionism and self-esteemlevels of middle school students. We sought answers to the following questions with this purpose in mind. 1. What are the positive and negative perfectionism and self-esteemlevels of middle school students?

The collected data are analyzed using Pearson Product-Moment Correlation coefficient, simple linear regression analysis, and T-Test.
