Development of a Brief Version of the Pathological Narcissism Inventory简版病态自恋问卷的发展;Abstract;For a variety of reasons, research on pathological narcissism was rather limited for quite some time (see Morey Stagner, 2012). One of the primary barriers to a constructive program of research was the lack of a well-validated measure that comprehensively assessed the facets of pathological narcissism (Cain, Pincus, Ansell, 2008; Ronningstam, 2009). Indeed, a substantial amountof previous research has relied on the Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI; Raskin Hall, 1979), which can be better understood as a measure of predominantly “normal” or “adaptive” narcissism (e.g., Roche, Pincus, Lukowitsky, Ménard, Conroy, 2013). In fact, combined with evidence of its inconsistent psychometric properties (e.g., Corry, Merritt, Mrug, Pamp, 2008; del Rosario White, 2005), the NPI’s utility in clinical research and/or decision making is questionable (Ackerman, Donnellan, Roberts, Fraley, 2015; Vater et al., 2013).;Our goal was to develop a brief but sound measure of pathological narcissism at the facet level, as it is theorized to be a multi-componential and rather heterogeneous construct (e.g., Cain et al., 2008). Given its demonstrated utility, we used the PNI as a basis for our work. Using data from four samples and collected by two separate research groups, we (a) determined which items on the PNI ought to be retained on a brief measure, (b)explored the Brief-PNI’s(B-PNI’s) factor structure, (c) examined the B-PNI’s associations with theoretically relevant external correlates, with reference to those exhibited by the full PNI. ;Method;Sample 3. Participants in Sample 3 were 581 undergraduate introductory psychology students (47.5% female; M age = 19.0 years [SD =1.7]) at a large university in the Northeastern United States, all of whom received course credit. The sample was predominantly White American (89.6%), followed by 6.2% Asian American, 3.2% African American,
