Within the narcissistic admiration and rivalry concept (NARC), it has been theorized that narcissistic admiration is the default mode of narcissistic expression, however, relatively little research has examined this possibility. Furthermore, although narcissistic admiration and narcissistic rivalry have been reported to be inter-correlated positively, no research has examined any factors that might moderate the association, which may have implications for our understanding of the development of narcissistic rivalry. Consequently, on the basis of two samples (sample 1: N = 169; sample 2: N = 484) that completed the Narcissistic Admiration Rivalry Questionnaire (NARQ), we tested whether people, on average, report higher levels of NARQ-Admiration than NARQ-Rivalry. Additionally, we tested whether intelligence moderated (reduced) the association between NARQ-Admiration and NARQ-Rivalry. Across two samples, we found that NARQ-Admiration had a statistically significantly higher mean than NARQ-Rivalry (sample 1: d = 0.71; sample 2: d = 0.65). Additionally, across both samples, we found that intelligence moderated (reduced) statistically significantly the association between NARQ-Admiration and NARQ-Rivalry. The results were interpreted as supportive of the contention that narcissistic admiration may be the default mode of narcissism. Additionally, whether narcissistic rivalry is developed or manifested may be contingent, in part, upon a person's level of cognitive intelligence.

沮丧的自恋者:智力可能会减少发展自恋竞争的机会

在自恋钦佩和竞争概念(NARC)中,有理论认为自恋钦佩是自恋表达的默认模式,然而,相对较少的研究对这种可能性进行了检验。此外,尽管据报道自恋钦佩和自恋竞争之间呈正相关,但没有研究检查任何可能缓和这种关联的因素,这可能对我们理解自恋竞争的发展产生影响。因此,基于两个样本(样本 1:N  = 169;样本 2:N = 484) 完成自恋钦佩竞争问卷 (NARQ),我们测试了人们平均报告的 NARQ 钦佩水平是否高于 NARQ 竞争。此外,我们测试了智力是否调节(减少)了 NARQ-Admiration 和 NARQ-Rivalry 之间的关联。在两个样本中,我们发现 NARQ-Admiration 的平均值显着高于 NARQ-Rivalry(样本 1:d  = 0.71;样本 2:d = 0.65)。此外,在两个样本中,我们发现智力在统计上显着调节(减少)了 NARQ-Admiration 和 NARQ-Rivalry 之间的关联。结果被解释为支持自恋钦佩可能是自恋的默认模式的论点。此外,是否发展或表现出自恋竞争可能部分取决于一个人的认知智力水平。
