As relações estabelecidas com as figuras de vinculação primárias desempenham um papel fulcral no desenvolvimento emocional e na construção da personalidade do indivíduo, influenciando a visão de si, dos outros e do mundo. O presente estudo teve como objetivo geral explorar o papel dos estilos de vinculação e das experiências de invalidação e validação emocional parental nos traços de personalidade narcísica, numa amostra de jovens adultos de nacionalidade portuguesa. A investigação é de carácter descritivo-correlacional e foi realizada com recurso a uma amostragem não probabilística por bola de neve e por conveniência. A amostra foi constituída por 260 jovens adultos portugueses (M=23.27, DP=3.57) que responderam a questionários para recolha e análise de informação, nomeadamente um Questionário Sociodemográfico, a Escala de Vinculação do Adulto, o Questionário de Experiências de (In)Validação Emocional, o Inventário de Personalidade Narcísica - 13 e a Escala de Narcisismo Hipersensível. As análises de diferenças revelaram que o sexo feminino apresentou níveis mais elevados de narcisismo hipersensível e vinculação ansiosa, bem como maior perceção de invalidação emocional. Os resultados indicaram associações significativas entre os estilos de vinculação, a perceção de validação e invalidação parental e os traços de narcisismo. Observou-se que a vinculação segura se associou negativamente ao narcisismo, enquanto a vinculação ansiosa se relacionou positivamente. No que respeita à invalidação paterna e materna, ambas as perceções de invalidação se associaram positivamente aos traços de narcisismo, enquanto a validação paterna e materna apresentou resultados inversos. Os modelos de regressão evidenciaram que a vinculação segura e a invalidação paterna e materna constituem preditores significativos do narcisismo grandioso. Adicionalmente, a validação parental de uma das figuras de vinculação moderou o efeito da invalidação da outra, sugerindo um possível efeito protetor das experiências de validação emocional. De um modo geral, os resultados destacam o papel central das experiências de vinculação e de validação ou invalidação emocional no desenvolvimento de traços narcisistas em jovens adultos.
Relationships established with the primary attachment figures play a crucial role in emotional development and personality construction, shaping individual’s perceptions of themselves, others and the world around them. The primary goal of this study was to explore the role of attachment styles and parental emotional invalidation and validation experiences in narcissistic personality traits in a sample of Portuguese young adults. Considering the study´s objective, a quantitative methodology was employed. The research followed a descriptivecorrelational study design and was conducted using non-probabilistic snowball and convenience sampling. The sample included 260 portuguese young adults (M=23.27, SD=3.57) who completed self-report questionnaires for data collection analysis, namely a Sociodemographic Questionnaire, the Adult Attachment Scale (EVA), the Emotional (In) Validation Experiences Questionnaire, the Narcissistic Personality Inventory–13, and the Hypersensitive Narcissism Scale. The analyses of differences revealed that female participants presented higher levels of hypersensitive narcissism and anxious attachment, as well as higher perceptions of emotional invalidation. The results indicated significant associations between attachment styles, perceptions of parental validation and invalidation, and narcissistic traits. It was observed that secure attachment was negatively associated with narcissism. Anxious attachment was positively related to it. Regarding paternal and maternal invalidation, both perceptions of invalidation showed the opposite pattern. The regression models showed that secure attachment and paternal and maternal invalidation are significant predictors of grandiose narcissism. Additionally, parental validation from one of the attachment figures moderated the other one invalidation effects, suggesting a potential protective effect of emotional validation experiences. Overall, the findings highlight the meaningful role of attachment experiences and emotional validation or invalidation in the development of narcissistic traits in young adults.
