This study explored associations between narcissistic grandiosity (including its component traits) and reported risky health behaviors in college students. College men and women ( = 122) participated between December 2015 and January 2016. Participants completed self-report measures of grandiosity, alcohol consumption, number of sex partners, and condom use. Grandiosity was positively associated with alcohol consumption. Gender interacted with grandiose traits, driving associations with reported sexual behaviors. College men high in entitlement/exploitativeness reported more sex partners. Grandiose exhibitionism was associated with condom use among women but not men, such that college women higher in grandiose exhibitionism were more likely to report not using a condom with their most recent partner. Grandiosity (and grandiose traits) may influence health behavior and/or the reporting of health behavior in college students, but associations may differ for men and women.
本研究探讨了大学生自恋型夸大（包括其组成特征）与所报告的危险健康行为之间的关联。2015年12月至2016年1月期间，122名男女大学生参与了研究。参与者完成了关于夸大、饮酒量、性伴侣数量和避孕套使用情况的自我报告测量。夸大与饮酒量呈正相关。性别与夸大特征存在交互作用，影响所报告的性行为。在权利/剥削性方面得分高的大学男性报告有更多性伴侣。夸大的暴露癖与女性而非男性的避孕套使用情况相关，即夸大暴露癖程度较高的大学女性更有可能报告在与最近的性伴侣发生性行为时未使用避孕套。夸大（以及夸大特征）可能会影响大学生的健康行为和/或健康行为报告，但男女之间的关联可能有所不同。
