Does grandiose narcissism predict greater attraction for others in relationships? We examined this question by replicating previous work implicating grandiose narcissists as mate poachers (Studies 1 and 2). We then used an experimental paradigm (Studies 3 and 4) to assess the extent to which grandiose narcissists indicate a greater interest in someone who is already in a relationship compared to someone who is single. Results suggest that although grandiose narcissism related to reports of more frequent mate poaching attempts, grandiose narcissists did not appear to be more interested in taking someone away from an existing relationship. Instead, participants took their own relationship status into consideration (rather than the relationship status of a target) when evaluating their interest in a target for a short-term fling or a long-term relationship. Thus, although grandiose narcissists report more frequent mate poaching attempts, they do not appear to be more interested in people in relationships compared to those who are single.
浮夸型自恋是否预示着在人际关系中对他人更有吸引力?我们通过重复先前的研究来检验这一问题,该研究表明浮夸型自恋者是偷情者(研究 1 和 2)。然后,我们使用实验范式(研究 3 和 4)来评估浮夸型自恋者对已有伴侣的人相较于单身人士更感兴趣的程度。结果表明,尽管浮夸型自恋与更频繁的偷情企图有关,但浮夸型自恋者似乎对从现有关系中抢走某人并不感兴趣。相反,参与者在评估自己对短期风流韵事或长期关系目标的兴趣时,会考虑自己的关系状况(而不是目标的关系状况)。因此,尽管浮夸型自恋者报告了更频繁的偷情企图,但与单身人士相比,他们似乎对已有伴侣的人兴趣不大。
