This study presents the development and validation of the Deenz Narcissistic Personality Scale (DNPS-32), designed to measure eight subclinical traits associated with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD): Grandiosity, Fantasy, Specialness, Entitlement, Exploitation, Unempathetic, Envy, and Arrogance. The scale aims to assess individuals’ tendencies toward narcissistic traits, potentially indicating a predisposition toward NPD.Data were collected from a sample of 34 students, consisting of 12 females and 22 males, with diverse academic backgrounds including 22 from arts, 5 from medical, and 7 from commerce streams. The reliability analysis yielded a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.84, indicating good internal consistency of the DNPS-32.
