Note. BPNI-V = Brief Pathological Narcissism Inventory Vulnerable Scale. HSNS = Hypersensitive Narcissism Scale. NVS = Narcissistic Vulnerability Scale. PNI-V = Pathological Narcissism Inventory Vulnerable Scale. S1 = Sample 1. S2 = Sample 2. Correlations with different superscripts are different from each other at (p < .01). Sample 1 correlation differences are indicated by numeric superscripts. Sample 2 differences are indicated by letters. In Sample 1, all |r| > .10 are significant at p < .01. In Sample 2, all |r| > .11 are significant at p < .01.
