Abstract: Abstract With the development of industrial engineering, it is the bounden responsibility of colleges to develop engineers which can meet the needs of the society. Mental health level of engineering talents has a profound impact on engineering talent structure. Many of “perfectionism” personality traits of the individual resulted in many serious physical and psychological problems that are eroding physical and mental health of people which has become a serious social problem. In this paper, the perfectionism personality of individual acts are shown on the principal-agent theory, namely through the establishment of a two-stage dynamic game model to explain the behavioral choice between “ideal self” and the “actual self” and other possible incentive problems caused by repeated games (“ratchet effect”). The key point is tried to be found which cause individual strange thinking model. The internal mechanism is further analyzed through the model in order to promote engineering talents’ growth and development.
