Note. N=862. Bolded values represent those in which the credibility interval did not contain zero. FFNI-G = Five Factor Narcissism Inventory-Grandiosity; -V = Vulnerability; -E = Extraversion; -A = Antagonism; -N = Neuroticism; FFNI-G = Five. Please note, some correlations were estimated in multiple models. The first correlation presented in text is presented here (however all values were similar). Most values are drawn from a mega-analysis across Sample 1, Sample 2, and Sample 3. Estimates from associations with the Big-5 are from a mega-analysis of Sample 1 and Sample 3 (The BFI-2 was not given in Sample 2).
