The Effect of Narcissistic Features and Self-Concept Clarity on Aggression

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to (1) investigate the relationship between several components of narcissism and aggression, and (2) explore the moderating effect of self-concept clarity on the relationship between narcissistic features and aggression. A total of 347 university students enrolled in introductory psychology courses completed questionnaires that assess narcissism, self-concept clarity, and aggression. Hierarchical multiple regression was used to analyze the data. The results were as follows: (1) among the narcissistic features examined, Exhibitionism and Entitlement had significant main effects on aggression in the male and female groups, respectively; (2) self-concept clarity was significantly and negatively associated with level of aggression in the female group; and (3) there was a significant interaction between narcissistic features and self-concept clarity to explain aggression beyond narcissism and self-concept clarity alone. In particular, self-concept clarity moderated the effect of Entitlement on aggression in the female group. The implications and limitations of the study were further discussed.
