dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this project is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current research on perfectionism, with a particular focus on elementary students. This study develops and proposes a detailed research design aimed at providing a class activity that reduces perfectionistic thinking through the use of regulation strategies, including emotional regulation, compassion, and self-compassion. The Heart Lock-In initiative by HeartMath shows promise in reducing perfectionism among students and is well-suited for classroom application. Classroom initiatives offer universal support to children who might otherwise lack access to necessary assistance. This project demonstrates the importance of preventative measures in addressing the increasing prevalence of perfectionism and offers a targeted approach to managing perfectionistic thoughts in educational settings.
