Factor Structure and Psychometric Properties of the Pathological Narcissism Inventory in Croatian sample
The Pathological Narcissism Inventory (PNI) is a multidimensional measure of pathological narcissism, developed by Pincus et al. (2009). The aim of this study was to provide psychometric support for the Croatian adaptation of the PNI. More specifically, we wanted to examine reliability, as well as factorial and construct validity of the PNI in Croatian student sample. Study sample consisted of 651 students from various faculties of the University of Zagreb (389 female and 260 male) with the mean age of 21.73 years (SD = 1.94). After employing the item parceling procedure, results of the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) indicated acceptable indices of fit, confirming the originally proposed seven-factor solution. The second-order factor structure was examined as well, confirming previous findings on the two higher order factors: narcissistic grandiosity and narcissistic vulnerability (Wright et al., 2010). Reliability of the subscales, assessed by the Cronbach’s alpha, indicates that these subscales have adequate internal consistency. Convergent validity was examined by calculating the correlations between the PNI subscales and scores on the Narcisstic Personality Inventory (NPI ; Raskin & Hall, 1979) and the Narcissism scale from the Short Dark Triad (SDT ; Paulhus & Jones, 2011). Moreover, the associations between the PNI scores and some other relevant indicators were examined, namely the scales from the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scales – 21 (DASS-21 ; Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995) and the Emotional Stability dimension from the International Personality Item Pool (IPIP-50 ; Mlačić & Goldberg, 2007). On the whole, our findings suggest that the Croatian adaptation of the PNI is a highly reliable instrument, with satisfying factorial validity. In addition, a meaningful pattern of correlations with related constructs indicates that the PNI represents a wider operationalization of narcissism than the alternative measures that were also applied in the present study.
