Resumen

El perfeccionismo es un rasgo relevante en el perfil socioemocional de estudiantes con alta capacidad, con efectos tanto adaptativos como desadaptativos. Este artículo presenta una revisión sistemática de investigaciones publicadas entre 2020 y 2025, cuyo objetivo fue analizar cómo se conceptualiza y evalúa el perfeccionismo en esta población y sus implicancias académicas y emocionales. Se aplicaron las directrices PRISMA en bases como Web of Science, Scopus, SciELO, PubMed y ERIC, identificándose 133 estudios, de los cuales 16 cumplieron los criterios de inclusión. Los resultados muestran predominio de modelos multidimensionales y del uso de la escala FMPS (Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale). El perfeccionismo adaptativo se relaciona con autorregulación y compromiso escolar, mientras que el desadaptativo se asocia con estrés, burnout y depresión. Se discuten limitaciones metodológicas y se sugieren líneas de investigación orientadas a desarrollar intervenciones educativas que potencien las facetas positivas del perfeccionismo y reduzcan sus riesgos.
