Narcissism Checklist: Understanding the Signs and Behaviors

What is Narcissism?

Narcissism exists on a spectrum. Some individuals may display narcissistic traits without meeting the full criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), while others may fully exhibit this pervasive disorder. There are different types of narcissism, including grandiose narcissism (the overt, more obvious form) and covert narcissism (the quieter, more hidden form). Both types can have damaging effects on relationships.
