“…Similarly, other studies also demonstrated that narcissism did not predict trolling behaviors (Lopes & Yu, 2017; March et al, 2017). It was argued that since narcissists are preoccupied with themselves more than others (Levy et al, 2011), there was no significant association between trolling and narcissism. Based on this information, we also do not expect a significant relationship between narcissism and any form of trolling.…”

The aim of this study is twofold. First, this study develops a new scale measuring sarcastic trolling and investigates the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Troll Deviancy Scale. Second, this study explores the associations among different trolling measures, dark triad, and overt and relational aggression. Eight items measuring sarcasm in trolling were written to develop a Likert type of scale. In total, 809 university students participated in the study and completed an online questionnaire. Findings suggested that both the sarcastic trolling scale and the Turkish version of the Troll Deviancy Scales are valid and reliable. Analyses showed that there were significant associations among trolling measures. Moreover, the differential predictive value of dark personality traits and overt and relational aggression in different forms of trolling were revealed. This study extends the existing literature on linking personality traits and aggression to a new form of trolling. Moreover, this study focused on a non-Western culture to examine different forms of trolling behaviors.

“…This section focuses on two main schools of psychoanalysis: Kernberg's school and Kohut's.

This paper addresses a serious psychological mental state, namely Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) which has spread all over the globe, leaving its evil effects on the individuals and the societies. Firstly, I argue that Rochester in Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre (1848) embodies a number of narcissistic traits and suffers from NPD according to The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), Fourth Edition in 1994. Moreover, I highlight the causes for his suffering from this disorder according to psychoanalysis and how Jane herself was a possible candidate to become a narcissist, but she managed to evade this psychological disorder at an early stage. Finally, I argue that Charlotte Bronte’s nineteenth century novel, Jane Eyre, offers a proactive measurement to prevent NPD in individuals prone to suffer from this disorder, and the novel also presents an application of a psychological treatment plan that has been articulated by Psychoanalysts, particularly Otto Kernberg and Heinz Kohut: Jane successfully plays the role of an expert psychoanalyst who manages to offer treatment to a character suffering from NPD; this inspires readers with a possible treatment of NPD or at least provides insight into human nature.

“…Although the definitions above mentioned represent mostly unhealthy narcissism, individuals with full-blown NPD are not very common in general population (MacDonald, 2014). Most of the modern theoreticians have agreed on that narcissism is a multidimensional construct requiring a differentiation between its grandiose and vulnerable representations on a spectrum bridging from healthy to pathological (Cain et al, 2008; Gabbard, 1989; Levy et al, 2011; Miller et al, 2012). Whereas an excessive degree of narcissism is regarded as pathological and leads to intra- and interpersonal problems, healthy (i.e., adaptive) narcissism includes appropriate degree of self-esteem and self-investment and involves capacity to have interpersonal relationships (Kealy et al, 2012; Stone, 1998).…”

A Systematic Review of the Association between Parenting Styles and Narcissism in Young Adults: From Baumrind’s Perspective

2021

The concept ‘parenting styles’ has been widely examined to understand the etiology of narcissism for decades. This study aimed to systematically review the empirical research literature regarding the association between perceived parenting styles and narcissism. In this study, Ebscohost, Wiley Online Library, Taylor&Francis, Springer Link, PubMed, PsycNet, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases were searched using identified keywords. An extensive database search resulted in 75 identified publications. Of these, 60 were scrutinized, and in the end, ten studies were included in the review for data synthesis. To reach a common conceptualization on the parenting styles, the results were evaluated based on Baumrind’s typology. As a result of this systematic review, we can conclude that there is a relationship between narcissism and parenting styles. In particular, perceived permissive parenting was positively correlated with narcissism. However, the relationship between narcissism and other parenting styles is more complex. Therefore, more high-quality empirical studies are needed to investigate the relationship between parenting and narcissism.
