Abstract

Commentary: "Personality and Intentional Binding: An Exploratory Study Using the Narcissistic Personality Inventory".

Highlights

  • A commentary on Personality and intentional binding: an exploratory study using the narcissistic personality inventory by Hascalovitz AC and Obhi SS

  • Hascalovitz and Obhi note that this is consistent with observations that patients with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) often report that they feel in control of their environment and tend to err on the side of an omnipotence, which they believe should result in admiration from others

  • Others have suggested that a lack of agency in NPD leads to a loss of touch with the person’s deepest wishes resulting in the experience of being flat, devitalized, and empty (Modell, 1984; Dimaggio et al, 2002; Dimaggio and Attinà, 2012)
