Resumo: | This study aimed to explore the contextual reasons and the underlying factors of the inconsistent relations between individual narcissistic constructs, vulnerable and grandiose narcissism, and collective narcissism – the belief that one’s group is particularly special but was not sufficiently recognised by other groups (Golec de Zavala et al.,2019). Specifically, in this study we investigated whether perceived social status moderates the relation between vulnerable- and grandiose narcissism and collective narcissism. Additionally, we explored possible underlying factors such as the contingencies of self-worth dimensions competition and need for approval from others but also possible cognitive factors such as intuitive cognition and need for closure. The measures of interest were completed by Austrian citizens (N=217). Contrary to the expected, perceived social status did not moderate the relationship between vulnerable- and grandiose narcissism to collective narcissism. The investigation of underlying factors revealed that the need for competition acted as underlying mechanism between vulnerable- and grandiose narcissism and collective narcissism. However, no mediating links were found for the factors approval from others, need for closure and intuitive cognition. We concluded that the narcissists endorsement of collective narcissism was not a form of ego protection through needing closure on a group level, nor was it caused by intuitive information processing, nor was it a way to find approval for their easily threatened selves. Instead, results seem to suggest that collective narcissism may be a narcissistic tool to enhance the competitive selves of both, vulnerable- and grandiose narcissists. |

Especificamente, o primero objectivo foi explorar se o estatuto social percebido medera a relação entre os narcisismos vulnerável e grandioso e o narcisismo coletivo. Adicionalmente, explorou se ainda eventuais fatores mediadores desta relação, tais como as contingências da auto-estima (competição e necessidade da validação de outros), e fatores cognitivos, como a cognição intuitiva e a necessidade de “fechamento” cognitivo. As medidas de interesse foram completadas através de um questionário online por cidadãos austríacos (N=217). Contrarimente ao esperado, o estatuto social percebido não moderou a relação entre narcisismo vulnerável e grandioso e, narcisismo coletivo. A necessidade de aprovação dos outros, a necessidade de encerramento e a cognição intuitiva não mediaram a relação entre narcisismo vulnerável/grandioso e o narcisismo colectivo. Concluiu-se que a aceitação por parte dos narcisistas do narcisismo coletivo (i) não é uma forma de proteção do ego através de uma necessidade de fechamento ao nível de um grupo, (ii) não é causada por um processamento intuitivo da informação, (iii) nem é uma maneira de ter aprovação para um self facilmente ameaçável. Pelo contrário, os resultados parecem sugerir que o narcisismo coletivo pode ser uma ferramenta narcísica para acentuar um self competitivo tanto dos narcisistas vulneráveis como dos grandiosos.2023-07-21T00:00:00Z2020-07-21T00:00:00Z2020-07-212020-06info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/20725TID:202518574engGroßschädl, Michaelainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-09T17:42:42Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/20725Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:20:01.449181Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
