To Explore the Role of Family Environment in Shaping Narcissistic Personality among Male and Female

Abstract This review paper explores the intricate relationship between family dynamics and the development of narcissistic traits in college students. It highlights how parental influences, such as excessive praise or a lack of constructive criticism, contribute to the emergence of narcissistic behaviors, including grandiose narcissism characterized by aggression and dominance. Conversely, environments devoid of critical feedback may foster defensiveness and an inflated sense of self-importance. The study emphasizes the importance of recognizing individual differences and the risks associated with excessively inflated self-worth. Additionally, gender differences in expressing narcissistic traits are examined, advocating for further research into environmental influences and the development of tailored interventions to support the psychological well-being of young adults in academic settings.
