The present study aimed to examine the relationship of school anxiety with perfectionism, which is considered as a factor of psychological vulnerability that directly affects academic performance, in a sample of 1588 Ecuadorian students aged 12 to 18 years (M =14.82; S.D. = 1.86). The School Anxiety Inventory (IAES) and the Child and Adolescent Perfectionism Scale (CAPS) were used. Data analysis revealed that students with high school anxiety showed significantly higher levels of perfectionism and that high levels of perfectionism predict high levels of school anxiety. key words: school anxiety; perfectionism; school anxiety inventory (IAES); Ecuadorian schoolchildren. 1 Profesor Contratado Doctor.
