Mediation analyses, standard and hierarchical regression analyses were conducted. The results are as follows: First, their parental psychological control was shown to have a significant effect on the interpersonal anxiety of college students. It means that college students whose parents with higher psychological control were more likely to be interpersonal anxiety.

To sum up, it is suggested that parental psychological control and perfectionistic self-presentation are significant factors to manage the interpersonal anxiety for college students. Furthermore, the findings underscore the importance of incorporating how to identify, decrease, and mitigate perfectionistic self-presentation into counseling intervention for college students’ interpersonal anxiety.
