Narcissism is NOT High Self-esteem, Self-worth, Self-confidence (Role of Attribution Error)
Comparison to internalized standards. Perfectionism leads to narcissist, an eternal striving to match inner expectations: physical appearance, physical ability, achievement, peer acceptance, and a variety of personal traits (Harter, 1983).
A healthy sense of self-worth (regulated and stable) is modified by feedback and experience without compromising or altering the core (situated self-esteem, Bednar, Wells, and Peterson (1989).
Narcissism involves attribution errors, a stable, regulated sense of self-worth does not.
Narcissism is compensatory, sense of self-worth is not, is innate. So, narcissism is totally reactive to the environment and externally regulated while self-esteem and self-confidence are only minimally so are self-correcting (internally regulated).
When narcissist misbehaves or collapses, his bad object is triggered and this undermines his grandiosity.
To defend against shame, guilt, envy, and antagonism, and to restore his grandiosity, narcissist reframes and confabulates, usually casting himself as prosocial or as a victim (“these ideas and work are mine, I did not steal or plagiarize them”, “I committed the crime because I had no choice”, “I slept with my best friend’s girlfriend because he trapped me into it, he made me do it, she seduced me”, etc.) Raskin, Novacek, and Hogan (1991).
