Abstract: (1113 Views)
Background & Objectives: Considering the effect of transformational factors on individual and social problems and the need to pay more attention to them, the present study was conducted to investigate the relationship between impulsivity and attachment styles mediated by large-scale narcissism and vulnerability.
Materials and Methods: The present study was descriptive-correlational. Using multi-stage cluster sampling method, 300 students of Tabriz University were selected. Data collection tools were the Adult Attachment Inventory, the narcissistic personality inventory, the Hypersensitive Narcissism Scale, and the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale. Data were analyzed using structural equation method and AMOS23 software.
Results: The results of direct paths showed a significant negative relationship between secure attachment and impulsivity (r = -0.19, p <0.01) and also a positive relationship between avoidant and ambivalent attachment, vulnerable and grandiose narcissism with impulsivity (respectively r = 0.18, r = 0.20, r = 0.16, r = 0.21, p> 0.01). In indirect paths, vulnerable narcissism and grandiose narcissism have been significant mediators of the model.
Conclusion: According to the results, grandiose and vulnerable narcissism can explain part of the relationship between attachment styles and impulsivity. These findings indicate the importance of attachment styles and the two types of narcissism mentioned in the prevention of impulsive behaviors.
