在西方文化背景下，夸大（公开）自恋已被证明与消极心理健康（抑郁，自杀意念）无关或负相关。在东方文化背景下，自大自恋与抑郁和自杀意念变量的关系可能有所不同。因此，本研究的目的是调查之间的关联夸大自恋，抑郁症，自杀意念在中国大城市的学生样本，以及在德国的学生样本。共有N = 935名中国学生（73.3%为女性; M年龄= 22.62，SD年龄= 0.89）和N = 389名德国学生（75.6%为女性; M年龄= 23.13，SD年龄= 2.94）完成了纸笔和/或在线测量夸大自恋，抑郁和自杀意念。在中国学生中，自大自恋与抑郁和自杀意念呈正相关。在控制性别、年龄和调查方法的情况下，抑郁完全介导了自大自恋和自杀意念之间的关联。相比之下，在德国样本中，没有发现任何显着的关联。浮夸的自恋在中国与在德国产生的后果显然不同。
In Western cultural context, grandiose (overt) narcissism has been shown to be either unrelated or negatively related to negative mental health (depression, suicide ideation). Grandiose narcissism may be differently related to depression and suicide ideation variables in Eastern cultural contexts. The current study therefore aims to investigate associations between grandiose narcissism, depression, and suicide ideation in a sample of metropolitan Chinese students as well as in a sample of German students. A total of N = 935 Chinese students (73.3% female; M-age = 22.62, SDage = .89) and of N = 389 German students (75.6% female; M-age = 23.13, SDage = 2.94) completed paper-and-pencil and/or online measures of grandiose narcissism, depression, and suicide ideation. Grandiose narcissism was positively associated with depression and suicide ideation in Chinese students. Depression fully mediated the association between grandiose narcissism and suicide ideation - controlling for gender, age, and survey method. In contrast, in the German sample, no significant associations could be found. Grandiose narcissism obviously has different consequences in China than in Germany.
