Over 25 years of research suggests an important link between perfectionism and personality traits included in the five-factor model (FFM). However, inconsistent findings, underpowered studies, and a plethora of perfectionism scales have obscured understanding of how perfectionism fits within the FFM. We addressed these limitations by conducting the first meta-analytic review of the relationships between perfectionism dimensions and FFM traits (k = 77, N = 24,789). Meta-analysis with random effects revealed perfectionistic concerns (socially prescribed perfectionism, concern over mistakes, doubts about actions, and discrepancy) were characterized by neuroticism ($r_c^{+}$ = .50), low agreeableness ($r_c^{+}$ = −.26), and low extraversion ($r_c^{+}$ = −.24); perfectionistic strivings (self-oriented perfectionism, personal standards, and high standards) were characterized by conscientiousness ($r_c^{+}$ = .44). Additionally, several perfectionism–FFM relationships were moderated by gender, age, and the perfectionism subscale used. Findings complement theory suggesting that perfectionism has neurotic and non-neurotic dimensions. Results also underscore that the (mal)adaptiveness of perfectionistic strivings hinges on instrumentation.

超过25年的研究表明，完美主义与五因素模型（FFM）中包括的人格特质之间有着重要的联系。但是，不一致的发现，研究不足以及完美主义的量表过多，使人们对完美主义在FFM中的适合程度的理解变得模糊。我们通过对完美主义维度与FFM特征之间的关系进行首次荟萃分析来解决这些局限性（k = 77，N = 24,789）。带有随机效应的荟萃分析显示，完美主义的关注点（社会规定的完美主义，对错误的关注，对动作的怀疑和差异）以神经质为特征（${\mathrm{[R}}_C^{+}$ = .50），低一致性（${\mathrm{[R}}_C^{+}$ = −.26）和低外向性（${\mathrm{[R}}_C^{+}$= −.24）；完美主义的努力（自我导向的完美主义，个人标准和高标准）的特征在于尽职尽责（${\mathrm{[R}}_C^{+}$= .44）。此外，通过性别，年龄和所使用的完美主义量表对几种完美主义与FFM的关系进行了调节。结果补充理论表明，完美主义具有神经质和非神经质的维度。结果还强调，完美主义努力的（不良）适应性取决于仪器。
