Abstract
Some kinds of perfect spaces, including paracompact perfectly normal spaces and collectionwise normal perfect spaces, are characterized in terms of continuous selections avoiding supporting sets. A necessary and sufficient condition on a domain space for a selection theorem of E. Michael [Fund. Math. 47 (1959), 173–178] to hold is also obtained.
