Aim: The primary objective of this study was to explore the mediating role of perfectionism in the connection between Insecure attachment and depression symptoms.
Method: In the current research, a descriptive and correlational approach was employed, and the proposed model introduced within the study was assessed through the application of structural equation modeling. The statistical population for this study comprised second-grade high school students from Delijan city, enrolled in the 1401-1402 academic year. A total of 550 students were selected using random cluster sampling. Data collection for this study incorporated multiple instruments, including the attachment scale (Collins and Reed, 1990), perfectionism scale (Hewitt and Flett, 1991), and the depression subscale of DASS-21 (Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995).
Result: The results indicated that the structural model presented in this research fits the collected data. There was a direct positive relationship between depression and avoidant attachment, anxious attachment, and perfectionism (p = 0/001). Furthermore, the indirect relationship of depression with avoidant attachment (p = 0/002) and anxious attachment (p = 0/001) mediated by perfectionism, was also significant.
Conclusion: The findings highlighted the mediating role of perfectionism in the relationship between avoidant and anxious attachment styles with depression. Consequently, enhancing the quality of interpersonal relationships could be achieved through educational initiatives aimed at increasing awareness among parents, students, and educational authorities regarding ineffective perfectionism and detrimental attachment styles. Moreover, these research outcomes hold potential significance in the realms of psychopathology and the development of treatment protocols, particularly by emphasizing the intermediary influence of perfectionism.
