This study aimed to examine the moderated mediation effect of perceived social support through maladaptive self-focused attention on the association between covert narcissism and social anxiety. Data from 352 college students in South Korea were analyzed by using moderated mediation analysis. The results are as follows: First, maladaptive self-focused attention had partial mediation effects in the pathway from covert narcissism to social anxiety. Second, a professors’ support and friends’ support of perceived social support had moderation effects in the pathway from maladaptive self-focused attention to social anxiety. Third, a professors’ support of perceived social support had moderated mediation effects through maladaptive self-focused attention in the relationship between covert narcissism and social anxiety. Finally, the significance and limitations of this study and suggestions for future research were discussed.
