Electronic Narcissism: College Students' Experiences of Walkman Listening

In an effort to investigate the consequences of the electronic media on the audience, the author examines the impact of the Walkman on the experiences of the listeners. To study the experience of Walkman listeners, the author analyzed the journals of 40 college students regarding their experiences in listening to their Walkmans. In the study, the technological features of the Walkman, the expressive bias and the privatization, are specified and their impact on the nature of the experiences of the listeners are analyzed. The author argues that narcissism best describes the experiences fostered by the expressive bias and the privatization of the Walkman. Narcissism is used here to refer to the visceral sensation and the social segregation one experiences as one listens to the Walkman. The author concludes that electronic narcissism, far from being a pathological act, is in fact a sign of mental health.     

Sexual Minorities’ Gender Norm Conformity and Sexual Satisfaction: The Mediating Effects of Sexual Communication,Internalized Stigma,and Sexual Narcissism

Objective: Sexual satisfaction has implications for well-being and may be related to gender norms. This study was conducted to understand the relationship between U.S. sexual minority (SM) individuals’ gender norm conformity and levels of sexual satisfaction, as well as examining the following potential mediators: sexual communication, internalized stigma, and sexual narcissism. Methods and Results: A path analysis (N?=?142) revealed that, for SM individuals, higher conformity to feminine norms was related to lower sexual satisfaction through higher internalized stigma. In addition, higher conformity to feminine norms for SM individuals was positively associated with sexual narcissism. Conclusion: Implications related to sexual satisfaction for SM individuals are discussed.

The Narcissism of Minor Differences as Distance Regulators in Core Intimacy Problems

Freud's narcissism of minor differences is explored in the context of couple therapy. The paper attempts to highlight how these minor differences manifest themselves in the development of major relationship crises. In particular an attempt is made to illustrate how these minor differences come to act as distance regulators in the delicate intimacy dance of the too‐near, too‐far dynamic.     

用心理分析方法解读爱伦·坡的女性小说

埃德加.爱伦.坡在作品中对女性的奇异刻画巩固了他作为“神秘恐怖的奇异故事的缔造者”的名声,其作品中许多轻妙脱俗的女性常常经历恐怖的死亡,她们或被活埋,或被损毁,或遭受精神吞噬。文章根据自体心理学相关理论证明坡是一位自恋型人格障碍者,其自恋型人格由他幼年时的创伤性经历引起,并极大地影响了他的文学创作。他的女性短篇小说如《贝蕾尼斯》、《莉吉娅》、《莫瑞拉》、《厄舍古屋的倒塌》都是他自恋心理的产物。     

自恋通过再创业风险感知对再创业意向的影响

文章通过对已有文献进行阅读、梳理与总结,认为再创业意向是一个人创业失败后继续创业的可能性,而自恋作为一种人格维度,具有四个维度,即领导权威、自我崇拜、优越感和人际开拓能力。文章将再创业风险感知纳入研究之中,探究其在自恋四个维度上与再创业意向之间的关系,并提出了相关假设以进行验证,试图系统建立起它们之间的相关联系。     

Dishing the dirt: gossiping in organizations

In an exercise in social theory, rather than an empirical investigation, we concentrate on the role of gossip – spreading ‘news about the affairs of another’ – in relation to the dynamics of power in organizations. Gossip has often been seen in functional terms, as both positive and negative for the organization. In this paper we challenge this functionalist approach. Gossip can be associated with what Freud called the narcissism of minor differences: the gossipers tend not to be too dissimilar from those gossiped about in terms of proximity. Propinquity may increase the animosity of gossip. We see formal organization as a self‐regulating system that constantly refines its boundaries, and gossip is the dirt that trickles in and out of these boundaries, illegitimate, formally disdained and often destructive. The writer who has done most to encourage and clarify thinking about the nature of dirt is Mary Douglas, the anthropologist, especially her notion of expressive pollution. The paper concludes with some implications for ethics in practice viewed through power relations.     

身体化的自我：消费社会的“自恋”人格

在消费社会,人们以身体形象而非以精神品格为自我的身份认同形式,产生“自恋”人格。身体化的自我受个性化、差异性逻辑的支配,但这种个性差异只是符号性的差异化,因此导致自我的趋同化以及自我真实差异性趋于消失。     

自恋人格的结构、形成机制及相关研究

自恋作为一种普遍存在的人格特质,是西方人格和社会心理学中的一个重要的概念。西方心理学界对自恋人格特质进行了大量的研究,从形成机制分析,到自恋人格结构的探讨与测量,发展到考察自恋与自我概念、攻击、宽恕、权欲和马基雅弗利主义等变量之间的关系。这些研究对于揭示自恋人格特质的内涵,以及自恋对个体的影响具有重要意义。     

论1990年代中国女性文学创作
