Abstract

We studied the relationships between maladaptive narcissism and three distinct forms of empathy: cognitive empathy, emotional contagion, and emotional disconnection. The sample consisted of 300 students aged between 20 and 27 years, from two universities in India. Structural equation modeling was used to establish anxious and avoidant attachment as precursors of maladaptive narcissism and to test the link of maladaptive narcissism with empathy via mindfulness and perspective taking. The results confirmed anxious and avoidant attachment as significant predictors of narcissism. Mindfulness acted as a mediator between maladaptive narcissism and the three types of empathy, and perspective taking mediated the link of maladaptive narcissism with both cognitive empathy and emotional contagion. Implications of the findings are discussed.

透视与正念是适应不良自恋与移情关系的中介

我们研究了适应不良自恋与三种不同形式的共情:认知共情、情绪感染和情绪分离之间的关系。样本包括来自印度两所大学的300名年龄在20至27岁之间的学生。采用结构方程模型建立了焦虑型和回避型依恋作为适应不良自恋的前兆，并通过正念和视角转换来检验适应不良自恋与共情的关系。结果证实，焦虑型和回避型依恋是自恋的重要预测因素。正念在适应不良自恋与三种共情之间起中介作用，视角采取在适应不良自恋与认知共情和情绪感染之间起中介作用。讨论了研究结果的含义。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
