title: Depressive tendencies and pathological narcissism among psychiatric outpatients.
abstract: This study examined the relationship between components of pathological narcissism and types of depressive tendencies among a sample of 117 psychiatric outpatients. Findings revealed that depressive themes concerning dependency were associated with narcissistic grandiosity. Depressive tendencies concerning self-criticism were positively associated with narcissistic vulnerability.
