The manual of the inventory that is available from Google search and is provided by Fredrick Coolidge on his website, doesn't mention the item numbers of Narcissism scale. One of the earlier versions of the manual indicates that the scale has 26 items. Can anybody please tell me the item numbers of Narcissism scale in CATI ?
It appears to be a proprietary personality test marketed by Dr. Coolidge. In other words, we are not supposed to know the item content or the scoring - unless, perhaps, we become paying customers. I guess the big advantage of this test is that it is supposed to be inexpensive relative to, say, the PAI or MCMI. And since it's self-published (not produced by one of the big testing companies), Coolidge might be willing to let you use it in your dissertation research (if that's what you're doing) free of charge. Try contacting him directly.
Have a look on Coolidgetests.com
All the Coolidge tests are available to researchers free of charge for university related research. You should get the test and scoring.
Thank you to both of you. I have checked the website, and contacted the author some time ago. The manual is already available online, but unfortunately it doesn't have items of only 1 scale, rest of the information is there. Dr. Coolidge has not responded to my mails so far. Only once he replied but the conversation didn't go any further. So I thought of asking others here. I needed it for my research but I am now looking for it for clinical purposes. Hopefully, I can get to know about the narcissism scale items from here.
Hi,
I don't know how important CATI scales of Narcissism are for your research or if you want to do research on narcissistic personality disorder in general. If second, you may try to contact Dr. Elinor Greenberg, she is an expert on NPD. She uses important subtypes of NPD
as well,.. Good luck with your research.
