Is there an association between the level of grandiose narcissism severity of psychopathology?

Background: Narcissism is a personality trait associated with both psychological health and resilience as well as with aggression and interpersonal problems.

Aim: This study compares levels of total narcissism and subscale scores in inpatients, outpatients and a community sample.

We tested the survey in a parent population (N = 105) and report the different stages in the validation process along with the full survey, the Neonatal Satisfaction Survey - 13 categories (NSS-13).

Perceived humiliation during admission to a psychiatric emergency service and its relation to socio-demography and psychopathology.

Background: There is a lack of empirical studies of patients' level of humiliation during the hospital admission process and its implications for the clinical setting. We wanted to explore associations between self-rated humiliation and socio-demography and psychopathology in relation to admission to a psychiatric emergency unit.

Methods: Consecutively admitted patients (N = 186) were interviewed with several validated instruments.

A study of outcome in patients treated at a psychiatric emergency unit.

Psychometric examination and normative data for the narcissistic personality inventory 29 item version.
