Abstract

Background: We examined the associations between grandiose narcissism (GN), vulnerable narcissism (VN), cognitive inhibition, and task-related state responses.

Participants and procedure: Participants (N = 154; age: M = 23.60, SD = 3.71) completed measures of narcissism, performed a cognitive inhibition task (the antisaccade task), and reported stress states (distress, worry and engagement) before and after the task.

Results: The results revealed that VN was negatively linked to cognitive inhibition. Furthermore, VN predicted higher levels of distress and lower levels of engagement during the task, whereas GN predicted higher engagement and lower distress.

Conclusions: These findings demonstrate a negative impact of VN on cognitive performance and stress responses during task performance. Understanding these dynamics enhances our knowledge of how narcissism may influence cognitive functioning.

脆弱型和浮夸型自恋者的认知表现和压力状态。

背景：我们研究了浮夸型自恋（GN）、脆弱型自恋（VN）、认知抑制和任务相关状态反应的关系。参与者和程序：参与者（N = 154，年龄：M = 23.60, SD = 3.71）完成了自恋测量，执行了认知抑制任务（反扫视任务），并在任务前后报告了压力状态（痛苦、担忧和参与）。结果：VN与认知抑制呈负相关。此外，在任务过程中，VN预测更高的痛苦水平和更低的投入水平，而GN预测更高的投入水平和更低的痛苦水平。结论：这些研究结果表明，在任务执行过程中，VN对认知表现和应激反应有负面影响。了解这些动态可以增强我们对自恋如何影响认知功能的认识。
