自恋在男性和女性身上表现不同，这可能是由于一种失调的地位寻求进化机制。这篇文章描述了两项关于私人自我专注（思考自己），公共自我专注（思考别人如何看待自己），性别和自恋之间关系的研究。这两项研究的结果都发现，在女性中，自恋与私人和公共的自我吸收有关，而在男性中，自恋只与公共的自我吸收有关。此外，两项研究的结果都发现，公共自我吸收调解私人自我吸收和自恋之间的关系，这种关系是由性别调节。这些结果表明，自我吸收和自恋共享的病理性自我集中的注意力的组成部分，以及失调的状态寻求机制可能参与自恋。(C)2016爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有
Narcissism manifests differently in men and women, and this may be due to a dysregulated status-seeking evolutionary mechanism. This article describes two studies of relationships between private self-absorption (thinking about oneself), public self-absorption (thinking about how others think about oneself), gender, and narcissism in large samples of U.S. college students. Results of both studies found that, among women, narcissism was associated with both private and public self-absorption, whereas among men, narcissism was associated only with public self-absorption. Additionally, results of both studies found that public self-absorption mediated the relationship between private self-absorption and narcissism and that this relationship was moderated by gender. These results suggest that self-absorption and narcissism share a component of pathological self-focused attention, and that a dysregulated status-seeking mechanism may be involved in narcissism.
