Sažetak

Self-oriented cognitions related to depression include self-perception from Beck’s cognitive triad, real-ideal self discrepancy from Higgins’ Self-Discrepancy Theory (Higgins, 1987) and perfectionism. Recent studies have shown that the relation between perfectionism and depression is indirect (Ashby, Rice, & Martin, 2006; Lauri Korajlija, 2004; Preusser, Rice, & Ashby, 1994; Rice, Ashby, & Slaney 1998). The aim of this research is to determine whether self-liking, self-competence, real-ideal, and real-ought self discrepancy present mediators in the relation between negative perfectionism and depressive symptoms.
A sample of 147 female students from University of Zagreb Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation Sciences was assessed by the following instruments: Beck’s Depression Inventory II, the Positive and Negative Perfectionism Scale, the Self-liking/Self-competence Scale and the Self Concept Questionnaire - Conventional Construct Version.
The results of this research have shown that self-liking and real-ought self discrepancy mediate the correlation between depressive symptoms and negative perfectionism. Self-competence and real-ideal discrepancy are both correlated to negative perfectionism and depression but these variables do not mediate the tested relationship.
