Researchers found that the number of Facebook friends and wallposts that individuals have on their profile pages correlates with narcissism. Buffardi said this is consistent with how narcissists behave in the real-world, with numerous yet shallow relationships. Narcissists are also more likely to choose glamorous, self-promoting pictures for their main profile photos, she said, while others are more likely to use snapshots.

Narcissism is a trait of particular interest, Campbell said, because it hampers the ability to form healthy, long-term relationships. "Narcissists might initially be seen as charming, but they end up using people for their own advantage," Campbell said. "They hurt the people around them and they hurt themselves in the long run."
LOL. That's pretty funny. I wonder if I qualify as one of those... wait, I might be. I don't have any ugly friends.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I think most of us on Facebook and MySpace might qualify. We all have a lil' narcissist hiding out somewhere inside of us :P
