The current research was aimed to investigate the relationship
between narcissism, self-esteem and aggression. Sample was
comprised of 155 university students (84 men and 71 women).
Narcissism Personality Inventory (NPI) (Raskin & Terry, 1988),
Direct and Indirect Aggression Scale (DIAS: Bjorkqvist,
Lagerspetz, & Osterman, 1992) and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale
(RSES: Rosenberg, 1965) were used to measure the constructs of
the study. Reliability analysis depicted that all the scales and their
sub constructs have satisfactory alpha reliability coefficient.
Pearson correlation shows that narcissism is positively associated
with aggression, whereas self-esteem is negatively correlated
withaggression. Significant gender differences are found in
narcissism, as men scored significantly high than females. The
research problems specify interventional strategies to limit the
severity of narcissism and anger explosion in young adults
