“…This view also fits well with clinical experience, which reveals individuals with varying combinations of grandiosity-—versus vulnerability—-based problems (Ronningstam, 2005; Russ et al, 2008). As a result, it is important for researchers to assess the entire spectrum of narcissism features when identifying correlates and consequences of narcissism (see Siedor, Maples-Keller, Miller, & Campbell, 2016, for a similar argument).…”

The narcissism spectrum model synthesizes extensive personality, social-psychological, and clinical evidence, building on existing knowledge about narcissistic grandiosity and vulnerability to reveal a view of narcissism that respects its clinical origins, embraces the diversity and complexity of its expression, and reflects extensive scientific evidence about the continuity between normal and abnormal personality expression. Critically, the proposed model addresses three key, inter-related problems that have plagued narcissism scholarship for more than a century. These problems can be summarized as follows: (a) What are the key features of narcissism? (b) How are they organized and related to each other? and (c) Why are they organized that way, that is, what accounts for their relationships? By conceptualizing narcissistic traits as manifested in transactional processes between individuals and their social environments, the model enables integration of existing theories of narcissism and thus provides a compelling perspective for future examination of narcissism and its developmental pathways.

“…Although it currently is unclear which exact traits are measured by the HPS, research based on Schalet et al’s (2011) structural findings suggests that there is considerable value in examining specific content subscales derived from its items. For example, the Social Vitality subscale derived from Schalet et al’s (2011) three-factor structure has been shown to associate strongly positively with extraversion and some narcissistic traits (e.g., leadership/authority, exhibitionism), and displays positive relations with externalizing psychopathology (e.g., risk-taking, callousness, manipulativeness) more generally (Siedor, Maples-Keller, Miller, & Campbell, 2016; Stanton et al, 2016). Moreover, Stanton et al (2016) found that Social Vitality actually associated negatively with indicators of mania in some instances, whereas Excitement showed specificity in predicting hypomania/mania.…”

Considerable research has used the Hypomanic Personality Scale (HPS) to assess traits conferring risk for hypomanic and manic episodes. Although the HPS has been shown to be defined by several distinct sets of content, most research has continued to rely exclusively on HPS total scores, due to (a) little research having examined its structure and (b) the discrepant structural results obtained in the few available studies. Therefore, we examined the structure and relations of the HPS in a large sample of community adults ( N = 737) receiving psychiatric treatment. Our structural results indicated a five-factor structure of Activation, Charisma, Intellectual Confidence, Lability, and Modesty. Subscales modeling these emergent factors showed divergent patterns of relations with personality and other forms of psychopathology. These findings underscore the importance of examining HPS subscale relations in addition to HPS total scores in future research.

“…Indeed, especially this latter index ( r ICC ) has been frequently applied in prior research to test the equivalence of different trait indicators. These tests include comparison of inventories sought to measure the same construct(s) (e.g., Gentile et al, ; Maples et al, ; Maples, Guan, et al, ; Miller, Price, & Campbell, ) or different (albeit related) constructs (e.g., Maples, Miller, Hoffman, & Johnson, ; Miller, Hyatt, Maples‐Keller, Carter, & Lynam, ; Miller, Lynam, et al, ; Siedor, Maples‐Keller, Miller, & Campbell, ), as well as of different questionnaire formats applied to the same inventory (e.g., Miller, Gentile, et al, ). Herein, we build on these ideas and present a more holistic approach to test the equivalence of trait indicators in terms of predictive validity, comparing the entire pattern of relations of the indicators across a variety of criteria using a tailored analytic approach that integrates (descriptive and statistical) comparison of the observed zero‐order correlation matrices, the overall proportion of explained variance, and the unique (incremental) effects in multiple regression analyses across (groups of) indicators.…”
