Self-perceptions of empathy and social support as potential moderators in the relation between adolescent narcissism and aggression.
Abstract
The present study investigated social support, empathy, and aggression as a function of adolescent grandiose, vulnerable, and non-pathological narcissism. Participants (N = 185) were adolescents (159 male, 26 female), ages 16 to 18, enrolled in a residential program for youth who had dropped out of school. Grandiose narcissism was positively associated with reports of social support and empathy. Each narcissism dimension was positively correlated with self-reported aggression, but vulnerable narcissism and non-pathological narcissism predicted unique variance in aggression. Furthermore, the association between each form of narcissism and aggression was exacerbated by low self-reported empathy. The implications of these findings for advancing understanding of the relation between adolescent narcissism and aggression are discussed.

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.
