Popis: Across the steadily superseding world, the younger generation is coming under pressure for an increase in the standard and a highly growing demand on their life themselves. This could lead to a variety of problems, including academic perfectionism and school alienation. To gain more insights into these phenomena, we conducted two research projects on students from eight upper secondary schools in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam using online surveys, and obtained two datasets. Dataset A covers (i) the level of students' perfectionism; (ii) belief in school meritocracy; (iii) The competitiveness among students; and (iv) the intrinsic motivation to achieve. Dataset B contains students' self-reports about (i) their perceptions of parents' and teachers' academic conditional regard; (ii) academic contingent self-worth; and (iii) school alienation. The numbers of respondents of dataset A and dataset B are 2942 and 2970, respectively.
