In this study, we examined the relationship between the level of narcissism and justifiability evaluation of anger expression. Participants, 313 students, were asked to rate the justifiability of a variety of anger expressions by them as suffering victims, and answer the Narcissistic Personality Inventory-Short Version (NPI-S). Results indicated that the higher the sense of superiority and competence, which was an aspect of personality, the more justifiable they felt their unilateral expression of anger was. In contrast, the higher the need for attention and praise, another aspect, the less justifiable they felt their unilateral expression was. It was suggested, however, that individuals who had higher need for attention and praise tended to appraise suffering situations as severer, indicating that they would potentially evaluate anger expression as more justifiable. The results suggested that narcissism directly and indirectly involved in the justifiability evaluation of anger expression.
在本研究中，我们考察了自恋程度与愤怒表达合理性评价之间的关系。313名学生参与者被要求对他们作为受害方时各种愤怒表达的合理性进行评分，并回答《自恋人格问卷简版》（NPI-S）。结果表明，作为人格一个方面的优越感和能力感越强，他们就越觉得自己单方面表达愤怒是合理的。相反，作为另一个方面的对关注和赞扬的需求越高，他们就越觉得自己单方面表达愤怒不合理。然而，研究表明，对关注和赞扬有较高需求的个体往往会将痛苦情境评估得更严重，这表明他们可能会认为愤怒表达更合理。结果表明，自恋直接或间接地参与了愤怒表达合理性的评价。
