“…Narcissism questionnaires are increasingly being applied in different languages and countries than the ones they originated from. For example, the Narcissistic Admiration and Rivalry Questionnaire (Back et al, 2013) was developed in German and English and now has been translated and validated in several other languages including Polish (Rogoza, Rogoza, & Wyszyńska, 2016), Spanish (Doroszuk et al, 2019), and Italian (Vecchione et al, 2018).…”

With a recent surge of research on narcissism, narcissism questionnaires are increasingly beingtranslated and applied in various countries. The measurement invariance of an instrument across countries is a precondition for being able to compare scores across countries. We investigated the cross-cultural measurement invariance of three narcissism questionnaires (Brief Pathological Narcissism Inventory, B-PNI; Narcissistic Personality Inventory, NPI; and Narcissistic Admiration and Rivalry Questionnaire, NARQ) and mean-level differences across samples from the United States (N = 2,464), the United Kingdom (N = 307), and Germany (N = 925). Overall, the B-PNI and NARQ functioned equivalently for US and UK participants. More violations of measurement invariance were found between Germany and the combined US and UK samples, and for the NPI. In the B-PNI and NARQ, Americans scored higher than individuals from the UK regarding agentic aspects (self-sacrificing self-enhancement, admiration), while Germans scored lower than both Americans and UK individuals regarding antagonistic (entitlement rage, rivalry) and neurotic (hiding the self, contingent self-esteem) aspects. More inconsistent results were found for NPI facets. When noninvariance was present, observed means yielded biased results. Thus, the degree of measurement invariance across translated instrument versions should be considered in cross-cultural comparisons, even with culturally similar countries.

“…Participants completed an Italian adaptation (Vecchione et al, 2018) of the Narcissistic Admiration and Rivalry Questionnaire (NARQ, Back et al, 2013). The scale includes 18 items for the assessment of the two dimensions of narcissistic admiration (9 items, e.g., ‘I show others how special I am’) and rivalry (9 items, e.g., ‘I secretly take pleasure in the failure of my rivals’).…”

The current study investigates the longitudinal association between grandiose narcissism and multidimensional perfectionism over 2 years in adolescence. We adopted the Narcissistic Admiration and Rivalry Concept, which differentiates between two aspects of grandiose narcissism. We also considered multiple dimensions of perfectionism, including Socially Prescribed Perfectionism (SPP) and two forms of Self-Oriented Perfectionism (SOP), namely the tendencies to set high standards of performance (SOP-Striving) and to engage in overly critical self-evaluations (SOP-Critical). The study was conducted in a sample of Italian high school students (n = 331). Concurrent correlations indicated that Admiration was positively related to SOP-Striving and, to a lesser extent, to SOP-Critical and SPP. Rivalry was also positively related to the three perfectionistic dimensions, although correlations were smaller in size than those found for Admiration. Prospective associations between narcissism and perfectionism were analysed using a Random-Intercept Cross-Lagged Panel Model. Results showed that the predominant direction of effects was from narcissism to perfectionism, particularly from Admiration to SOP-Striving and SPP. Findings were discussed in terms of their implications for the understanding of the narcissism-perfectionism link.

“…The scale was originally developed in German and translated into English with the traditional translation-back-translation-confirmation process. This process was also used to generate English, Dutch, Danish, Italian, and Chinese versions of the NARQ by both the original authors and independent author teams (see Back et al, 2013; Vecchione et al, 2018; Q. Zhang et al, 2017).…”
