Abstract Teaching constitutes a highly demanding profession involving continuous interpersonal interaction, emotional engagement, and performance expectations, which may significantly influence teachers’ psychological well-being. The present study examined the relationship between intimacy and multidimensional perfectionism among school teachers. Intimacy, characterized by emotional closeness, trust, and openness, plays a vital role in maintaining healthy interpersonal relationships, whereas multidimensional perfectionism includes traits such as high personal standards, concern over mistakes, and perceived external pressures. This quantitative, non-experimental correlational study was conducted among a sample of 201 school teachers recruited through purposive sampling from various educational institutions, representing different age groups, educational qualifications, and levels of teaching experience. Data collection was carried out using the Intimacy Scale (IS) and the Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (FMPS) to assess the study variables. The study aims to understand how perfectionistic tendencies are associated with interpersonal intimacy among teachers and to contribute to the existing literature on teachers’ psychological well-being and relational functioning. The findings are expected to provide insights into the role of perfectionism in shaping interpersonal relationships and highlight the importance of promoting emotional well-being and supportive environments within educational settings.
Keywords Intimacy, Multidimensional Perfectionism, School Teachers, Emotional Well-being.
