Narcissism is seen as a multidimensional construct that consists of two manifestations: grandiose and vulnerable narcissism. In order to define these two manifestations, their relationship to personality factors has increasingly become of interest. However, so far no studies have considered the relationship between different phenotypes of narcissism and personality factors in adolescents. Method: In a cross-sectional study, we examine a group of adolescents (n = 98; average age 16.77 years; 23.5 % female) with regard to the relationship between Big Five personality factors and pathological narcissism using self-report instruments. This group is compared to a group of young adults (n = 38; average age 19.69 years; 25.6 % female). Results: Grandiose narcissism is primarily related to low Agreeableness and Extraversion, vulnerable narcissism to Neuroticism. We do not find differences between adolescents and young adults concerning the relationship between grandiose and vulnerable narcissism and personality traits. Discussion: Vulnerable and grandiose narcissism can be well differentiated in adolescents, and the pattern does not show substantial differences compared to young adults.
自恋被视为一种多维结构，由两种表现形式组成：夸大性自恋和脆弱性自恋。为了定义这两种表现形式，它们与人格因素的关系越来越受到关注。然而，到目前为止，尚无研究探讨青少年自恋的不同表型与人格因素之间的关系。方法：在一项横断面研究中，我们使用自我报告工具，研究了一组青少年（n = 98；平均年龄16.77岁；23.5%为女性）的大五人格因素与病理性自恋之间的关系。将该组与一组年轻人（n = 38；平均年龄19.69岁；25.6%为女性）进行比较。结果：夸大性自恋主要与低宜人性和外向性相关，脆弱性自恋与神经质相关。在夸大性自恋和脆弱性自恋与人格特质的关系方面，我们未发现青少年与年轻人之间存在差异。讨论：在青少年中，脆弱性自恋和夸大性自恋能够得到很好的区分，并且与年轻人相比，这种模式没有显著差异。
