Support for the three-factor model of narcissism and its personality underpinnings through the lens of the network psychometrics.

= 465 Polish adults were administered eight distinct narcissism measures, comprising 13 scales capturing different aspects of narcissistic personality and a measure of personality metatraits. Results revealed that the three-factor structure reproduces well in the network approach across both data sets. The circumplex analyses provided further evidence for the personality underpinnings of the three factors. We discuss the role of pathological narcissism within the three-factor conceptualization of narcissism. Findings of the current article facilitate the understanding of narcissistic personality.
