Yini i-Umhlolo Wokwenza Kahle Ngexesha (SAPS-8)?
The Short Almost Perfect Scale (SAPS) is an 8-item self-report instrument that measures perfectionism across two distinct dimensions: Standards (the personal, often demanding, goals you set for yourself) and Discrepancy (the distress you feel when your performance doesn't match those goals). It was developed by Kenneth Rice and colleagues in 2014 as a fast, research-grade shortening of the longer Almost Perfect Scale-Revised.

Perfectionism research consistently finds that these two components behave very differently. High Standards alone, without much Discrepancy, tends to look like healthy ambition and drive. It's a high Discrepancy score, the perceived gap between what you expect of yourself and what you feel you're delivering, that the research links to anxiety, procrastination, and burnout.
JobCannon's Perfectionism test is a faithful implementation of the public SAPS-8 item set, scored on the standard 1-7 Likert range with the same Standards/Discrepancy split used in the source literature. Your results include an overall low / medium / high band plus a breakdown of both subscales, so you can see whether your perfectionism is running adaptive or is tipping into the distress zone.
