The purpose of this study is to investigate perfectionism level of gifted and talented students. The study involved gifted and talented students at the age of 10 to 13. ID form that was developed by researchers was used to collect demographical features and data for students’ perceptions about self-perfectionism, mothers’ perfectionism, fathers’ perfectionism and teachers’ perfectionism. On the purpose of collection data for perfectionism, “Child and Adolescent Perfectionism Scale” -which has two subscales called “self-oriented perfectionism” and “socially prescribed perfectionism”- was used (Uz Baş & Siyez, 2010). The study was designed as descriptive and the findings showed that there was no difference on self-oriented perfectionism due to gender; whereas on socially prescribed perfectionism subscale, males had higher scores than females. It was also found out that children perceived themselves and their mothers as perfectionist and this perception effected the scores on both subscales.
