This study examined the relationship between scores on narcissistic personality traits and causal attributions to positive and negative events. 119 undergraduate students in psychology as participants completed the Narcissistic Personality Inventory-40, the Attributional Style Questionnaire, and several Self-referencing Closed-ended Vignettes. Analyses indicated that men who scored higher on the Narcissistic Personality Inventory-40 made more internal and stable attributions to positive events and more external and unstable attributions to negative events than did men who scored lower on the Narcissistic Personality Inventory-40. Also scores on the Self-referencing Closed-ended Vignettes correlated significantly and positively with the Attributional Style Questionnaire, providing evidence for the validity of the vignettes.

This study investigated the relationship between narcissism and sensation seeking. It was hypothesized that a positive relationship would be found between the two personality variables. Undergraduates were administered both the Narcissistic Personality Inventory and Form IV of the Sensation Seeking Scale. For both males and females, scores on the Narcissistic Inventory correlated significantly with scores on the Disinhibition subscale of the Sensation Seeking Scale. Boredom Susceptibility was correlated with narcissism for males, while scores on the General and Experience Seeking subscales correlated significantly with narcissism for females. If disinhibition were a social form of sensation-seeking, the correlations with narcissism for both sexes would be accounted for. The study supports the construct validity of the Narcissistic Personality Inventory and provides evidence for regarding narcissism as a dimension of personality.

The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between narcissism and creativity. 71 subjects were asked to identify themselves as being highly creative or not highly creative. Subjects were then given the Barron Symbolic Equivalents Test to measure level of creativity and the Narcissistic Personality Inventory to measure their level of narcissism. Four groups were formed using the subjects' self-report and their Barron scores. Each group was then compared on the Narcissistic inventory scores. A significant difference in the narcissism scores was found between the high-creativity/high-self-report group and all other groups. The greatest difference was found between the high-creativity/high-self-report group and the low-creativity/low-self-report group. Upon further analysis a significant correlation of .25 was found between scores on Barron's test and the narcissism measure, which suggests that there is a small but positive and significant relationship between the personality variables of creativity and narcissism.

Facebook and Twitter have change interpersonal relationships. Adolescents are the sector of the population who use most these networks. They use them in an emotional way, to express their emotions and to comment on those of others. Empathy, narcissism, and self-esteem may play an important role in the use of these networks. Using a sample of 503 Spanish adolescents (272 males, 231 females), this work studies the relationship between the Basic Empathy Scale, the Narcissistic Personality Inventory, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and emotional and empathic use of Facebook and Twitter. The results showed that those who use Facebook and Twitter have higher scores in empathy. It has been observed that certain ways of using these two social networks are associated with narcissism. Greater use of Facebook and Twitter is associated with lower self-esteem.

To study the relationship between birth order and pathological narcissism, it was predicted that firstborn and only children would score significantly higher on standardized measures of pathological narcissism. Two such measures, the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory and the Narcissistic Personality Inventory, were administered to 50 randomly selected subjects from a metropolitan mental health and family treatment agency. Subjects were asked to indicate their ordinal birth positions, e.g., first, middle, last, or only, and then were administered both instruments. Analysis supported the initial prediction by indicating that firstborn and only children had higher mean scores on the measures of pathological narcissism. It might be advisable for clinicians to identify patients' ordinal positions while appraising relevant diagnostic criteria and eventual treatment planning.
