چکیده

این پژوهش به‌منظور بررسی پیوستار خودشیفتگی و نقش واسطه‌ای فرایندهای خودشناسی در ارتباط میان شفقت خود، ارزش خود و خودشیفتگی در دو گروه بالینی و غیربالینی صورت گرفته است. پژوهش حاضر بنیادی و برحسب شیوۀ گردآوری اطلاعات توصیفی-همبستگی است. جامعۀ آماری پژوهش کارمندان اراده‌های دولتی و خصوصی شیراز و مراجعان به کلینیک‌های روا‌ن‌شناسی/ روان‌پزشکی در سال 1398-1397 است. 140 نفر از کارمندان اداره‌ها به‌عنوان نمونۀ غیربالینی و 128 نفر از مراجعان به کلینیک‌های روان‌شناسی/ روان‌پزشکی به‌عنوان نمونۀ بالینی به روش نمونه‌گیری دردسترس انتخاب شدند که درمجموع 268 نفر (135 مرد و 133 زن) به‌عنوان نمونه در این پژوهش شرکت کردند. پرسشنامه‌های خودمهارگری، خودشناسی انسجامی و بهوشیاری برای بررسی فرایندهای خودشناسی، پرسشنامه‌های ناپایداری هدف و مقیاس برتری، به‌منظور بررسی خودشیفتگی و پرسشنامه‌های شفقت خود و ارزش‌ خود در اختیار داوطلبان قرار داده شد. روش آماری استفاده‌شده برای بررسی نقش واسطه‌ای فرایندهای خودشناسی تحلیل مسیر بود. همچنین برای تحلیل داده‌ها از نرم‌افزار SPSS نسخۀ 24 استفاده شد. نتایج نشان می‌دهد فرایندهای خودشناسی بین خودشیفتگی از یک سو و شفقت خود و ارزش ‌خود از سوی دیگر در هر دو گروه بالینی و غیربالینی نقش واسطه‌ای ایفا می‌کنند (05/0P<). یافته‌های این پژوهش بر اهمیت شفقت ‌خود به‌عنوان قطبی سالم‌تر در تحول پیوستار خودشیفتگی تأکید می‌کند و فرایندهای خودشناسی را واسطه‌ای در این تحول می‌داند..

چکیده [English]

This paper aims to investigate the continuum of narcissism and the mediating role of self-knowledge processes in the relationship between self-compassion, self-esteem, and narcissism in clinical and non-clinical samples. The present study is basic in terms of its objectives and descriptive-correlational in terms of data collection. The research population consists of government and private employees in Shiraz and clients of psychological and psychiatric hospitals. 140 employees as non-clinical sample and 128 patients as clinical sample were selected by random sampling method. A total of 268 subjects (135 men and 133 women) participated in the current study (2019). Self-knowledge processes were measured using the self-control scale, self-knowledge scale, and mindful attention scale. Goal instability and superiority scales were used to measure narcissism, and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and Self-Compassion Scale were used to measure self-esteem and self-compassion, respectively. The statistical method used in the study to examine the mediating role of self-knowledge processes was path analysis. SPSS 24 software were used to analyze data. The results showed that self-knowledge processes played a mediating role in the relationship between narcissism and self-esteem and self-compassion in both the clinical and non-clinical groups (ps <0.05). These findings highlight the importance of self-compassion as a healthier pole in the development of the narcissism continuum and indicate the mediating role of self-knowledge processes in this development.
