Abstract
This study examined how narcissism are related to psychological stresses and subjective well-being with self-esteem, and illustrated psychological characteristics of people with high degree of narcissism and low self-esteem. The participants were 735 male and female college students, whose ages ranged from 18 to 31. The psychological tests used in this research included the following: Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI), Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale, Stress Response Inventory, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Emotion Frequency Test, and Subjective Happiness Scale. Results indicated that narcissistic trait was positively correlated with self-esteem, and narcissism and self-esteem shared over than 25% variance. If they were adjusted by self-esteem in regression analyses, feeling of authority and superiority among factors of narcissism had no buffering effects for psychological stresses, and need for entitlement showed possible negative influences for psychological responses toward stresses such as aggression, anger, and depression. And need for entitlement and self-admiration negatively were correlated to subjective well-being, and feeling of authority and superiority positively were correlated to subjective well-being, as they were adjusted by self-esteem. This study revealed that especially people with high degree of narcissism and low self-esteem showed high degree of psychological responses toward stresses such as aggressiveness and anger. It was discussed roles of narcissism and self-esteem with previous studies.
