Hi all,

I came across this article, which summarizes new research from Notre Dame researchers on traits of narcissism and when they are adaptive and maladaptive. We often see NPD/narcissism spoken about in such a negative way, but this article is very interesting that they found 5 dimensions versus the recognized 3.

The Newest Way to Understand the 5 Facets of Narcissism | Psychology Today

I found it interesting and wanted to share for anyone seeking to understand narcissism more, whether as someone with the disorder or some traits or a family/friend.
