Review

Personality and Perfectionism: A Review. 

Khatibi M and Khormaee F.

J. Educ. Manage. Stud., 6(1): 13-19, 2016; pii:S232247701600003-6

Abstract
This is a brief review regarding the relationship between personality and perfectionism. What is meant by the words perfectionism? Perfectionism is not necessarily about being perfect. It is the relentless striving for extremely high standards that are personally demanding.  Perfectionists are divided into two types, adaptive and maladaptive. It has been found that both adaptive and maladaptive perfectionists have high personal standards, but failing to meet those standards is more stressful for the latter than for the former. Perfectionism is often mistaken for being perfect or doing something perfectly. This review defines perfectionism and identifies both the helpful and the unhelpful aspects of being a perfectionist, and determines in what ways you might be a perfectionist. Perfectionism is one of Raymond Cattell's 16 Personality Factors. According to this construct, people that are organized, compulsive, self-disciplined, socially precise, exacting will power, controlled, and self-sentimental are perfectionists. In the Big Five personality traits, perfectionism is an extreme manifestation of conscientiousness and can provoke increasing neuroticism as the perfectionist's expectations are not met. This brief review focuses on the relationships between the perfectionism and the personality traits. The following recommendation can be made in light of the findings of this review, whose aim was to examine the relationship between perfectionist personal traits and the personality traits. It is therefore recommended to consider both aspects of perfectionism and to concentrate more on the positive aspects of perfectionism.

Ortega-Dela Cruz R.A.

J. Educ. Manage. Stud., 6(1): 25-29, 2016; pii:S232247701600005-6

Abstract
This paper is focused on the financial expenditures of the undergraduate students in a State University in the Philippines. The methodology used in this study is the actual calculation. The study utilized the descriptive research design to determine the total direct cost of journalism education as it presents the total cost of expenditures per year level. Findings revealed an obvious budgetary constraint for families to send their children to school. Ratio of income to educational direct cost further implies the necessity of some financial assistance/aid in the form of scholarships, grants from the local government and or loans to be given by different organizations, companies, and unions that would help students in countering soaring college education costs.
