What people are saying

Many discussions highlight the strong correlation between vulnerable narcissism and neuroticism, with statements like 'almost identical correlation' and references to the research's findings, which suggests a scientific focus. The tone is analytical and somewhat neutral, emphasizing understanding over critique, which reflects a balanced appreciation of the article's contributions without excessive enthusiasm or controversy.

AgreementModerate agreement

Most discussions recognize the core finding that vulnerable narcissism is closely linked to neuroticism, with some posts emphasizing this connection explicitly.

InterestModerate interest

Participants show moderate interest, primarily focusing on clarifying and understanding the relationship between narcissism and neuroticism.

EngagementNeutral engagement

ImpactModerate impact

The discussions suggest the publication influences perceptions of narcissism and neuroticism, though the impact on broader understanding remains moderate.

Abstract in brief

  • The study finds that vulnerable narcissism is primarily linked to Neuroticism (65%) and also influenced by Agreeableness (19%), suggesting it is largely a reflection of neurotic personality traits.
  • The empirical profiles of vulnerable narcissism and Neuroticism are very similar across various measurements, indicating they share many psychological features.
  • The unique aspects of vulnerable narcissism, like distrust and grandiosity, are mainly related to low Agreeableness, highlighting specific traits that distinguish it from general Neuroticism and supporting the idea that personality traits can explain much of this disorder.]

This empirical paper is a window into the personality structure of the radical progressive activist left. They are vulnerable narcissists and highly neurotic. This should be quite obvious by now to anyone with a scintilla of rationality. https://t.co/w88iSgS7Gv https://t.co/9z97KVPT4A

@mitty1024 @yosicco この辺りの検討は突き詰めると結構面白いですよね。脆弱性ナルシシズムは、神経症傾向(性格特性の一つ)の高さによる障害だとする論文もあり、気質/性格と疾患の区分の難しさを物語っていると感じます。パーソナリティ心理学者と臨床心理学者がどう考えるのか興味があります https://t.co/Lu8JJ0wA0k

Vulnerable Narcissism Is (Mostly) a Disorder of Neuroticism https://t.co/zPfx9pK21V Correlation of vulnerable narcissism to Neuroticism (on the Big 5) is almost identical (MrICC = .94). Most variance between the two are from differences in distrustfulness and grandiosity.
