This study extends and supports the widespread acknowledged limitation of DSM-5 criteria for narcissistic personality disorder regarding the exclusion of vulnerable features.
“First, this study extends and supports the widespread acknowledged limitation of DSM-5 criteria for narcissistic personality disorder regarding the exclusion of vulnerable features (for a review of changes to dignostic criteria over time, see [74, 75]) and we acknowledge the current discussion regarding therapist decision to provide a diagnosis of NPD [76].”
From Living with pathological narcissism: a qualitative study (2020) · cites this paper as [75]
Early DSM criteria included idealization and devaluation for NPD, but it was subsequently removed to reduce overlap with other personality disorders.
“While early DSM criteria also included this for NPD (e.g., American Psychiatric Association, 1980), it was subsequently removed in order to reduce overlap with other personality disorders (Levy et al., 2011; Levy et al., 2013)”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
