Self-reported narcissism, self-esteem, and perceptions of parents as nurturing were examined in a sample of 459 undergraduates. In zero-order and partial correlations, dimensions from the Narcissistic Personality Inventory displayed inter-relationships and linkages with self-esteem and parental nurturance that conformed with the hypothesis that indices of narcissism fall along a continuum of mental health. Partial correlations controlling for self-esteem also indicated that at least some data for the more adaptive aspects of narcissism were mediated by healthier self-functioning. These results support recent suggestions that narcissism must be conceptualized within frameworks that include healthy self-esteem.
在459名本科生样本中，对自我报告的自恋、自尊以及对父母养育的认知进行了研究。在零阶和偏相关分析中，自恋人格问卷的维度显示出与自尊和父母养育之间的相互关系及联系，这与自恋指标沿着心理健康连续体分布的假设相符。控制自尊后的偏相关分析还表明，自恋较具适应性方面的至少一些数据是由更健康的自我功能介导的。这些结果支持了最近的建议，即自恋必须在包含健康自尊的框架内进行概念化。
