Examined differences in self-reported narcissism as a function of religious orientation type in 850 undergraduates. Local norms for the Religious Orientation Inventory were used to define Ss as intrinsic (IN), extrinsic, indiscriminately proreligious (IP), or indiscriminately antireligious, and statistical analyses remained sensitive to the tendency of the Narcissistic Personality Inventory (R. Rankin and CS Hall; see record 1981-22516-001) to measure both adaptive and maladaptive self-functioning. INs were lowest in a clearly pathological form of narcissistic exploitativeness. Inverse ties between intrinsicness and maladaptive narcissism could not be attributed to the IP. INs may serve as a useful empirical model for exploring how sincere religiousness might predict mental health.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
