Abstract
The present research was conducted to investigate the relationship between perfectionism and moral judgment competence in students. It was hypothesized that there is likely to be relationship between perfectionism and moral judgment competence. Correlational research design was used. The sample consisted of (N = 80) (n = 40 male and n = 40 female) students from different departments of the University of the Punjab. Self constructed demographic form Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (MPS) by Frost, Marten, Lahart, and Rosenblate (1990) and Moral Judgment Test (MJT) by Lind (1977) were used for data collection. Research findings showed that there was not significant relationship between perfectionism and moral judgment competence but positive relationship was found in them. Different family systems like nuclear and joint had significant effect on these two variables. The perfectionism and moral judgment competence in low and high achievers was also not significantly different.
