Summary

A new study reveals narcissists experience heightened social exclusion due to their aggressive and arrogant behaviors, creating a "self-perpetuating cycle" of pain.

They perceive ambiguous social cues as deliberately exclusionary, exacerbating their narcissistic traits. Researchers found that ostracism fuels narcissism, leading to further exclusion.

Lead author Christiane Büttner suggests that structured interventions—such as therapy or workplace strategies—could mitigate these effects

This approach aims to reduce the harm caused by narcissists and those around them and offers a new perspective on dealing with them.
