The scale was applied to four schools from the Babel Education Directorate, two schools for distinguished students and two schools for ordinary students. The following statistical methods were used (Alpha Cronbach coefficient - retest method - Pearson correlation coefficient - one-sample t-test - two independent samples t-test - Columgrove Samir-Nof test for one sample - Mann-Whitney test for two independent samples) The results showed that there is neurotic perfectionism among outstanding students and the absence of statistically significant differences in neurotic perfectionism among distinguished students according to the gender variable (male - female), and the absence of neurotic perfectionism among ordinary secondary school students and the absence of statistically significant differences in neurotic perfectionism Among ordinary secondary school students according to the gender variable (male - female) and there are statistically significant differences in neurotic perfectionism and in favor of distinguished students compared
