Social and personal expectations put pressure on individuals emerging adulthood. If one cannot meet the expectations of others and has maladaptive perfectionism, the individual is likely to experience anxiety, including fear of negative evaluation. Fear of negative evaluation may indicate low self-acceptance. Therefore, this study aims to identify whether or not there is a relationship between self-acceptance and fear of negative evaluation in emerging adulthood. The method used is a quantitative method with a correlational design. Participants were selected through purposive sampling with the criteria of 18 to 25 years old and Indonesian citizenship. 182 participants participated in this study.
