title: The paradox of in-group love: differentiating collective narcissism advances understanding of the relationship between in-group and out-group attitudes.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The present studies test the hypothesis that the overlap between collective narcissism and positive in-group identification conceals the opposite relationships these variables have with out-group derogation.
  
  
  METHODS
  Five surveys were conducted in different cultural and national contexts, using different samples and different intergroup contexts (Study 1, Polish student sample, N = 85; Study 2, British student sample, N = 81; Study 3, Polish representative sample, N = 979; Study 3, Polish student sample, N = 267 and Study 5, British student sample, N = 241).
  
  
  RESULTS
  The results of suppression analyses systematically indicate that when the positive relationship between collective narcissism and in-group positivity is controlled for, the non-narcissistic in-group positivity predicts less out-group negativity, whereas collective narcissism predicts more out-group derogation.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The results advance our understanding of constructive and destructive forms of in-group positivity and their different consequences for intergroup attitudes.
