The findings suggest that younger adults, men, and individuals who perceive themselves as having high social status tend to display higher levels of narcissistic traits, regardless of their cultural background.
The study's authors are 3 women and one man. Funny how they had the guy as the spokesman for the project. Anyhow, I do agree with the 'younger adults and those who feel they're of high social status' parts, but Tiktok women doing their makeup in cars probably want to have a chat with the research team.

There's a large grey area between subjective and objective. If you are the best superficially or practically at something, is that your perception only and thus narcissistic, or would everyone agree - or most likely would some agree and some not.
Having some narcissistic traits doesn't necessarily make you one. Traits may overlap with many personality types. The problem is when it's problematic.
