为什么自恋者更易升职?

A narcissist's self-image may do a great job of encouraging their managers to promote them, according to a recent study in the Journal of Personality.

近日发表在《人格杂志》上的一项研究指出，自恋者塑造的自我形象可能会极大地鼓励主管提拔他们。

The research included two questionnaire-based studies of 259 employees and 178 supervisors, where each assessed multiple statements regarding themselves and a potentially promotable employee.

该研究基于两项分别面向259名员工和178名主管的问卷调查。研究人员让前者根据不同表述对自身情况做出评估，并让后者回答什么样的员工可能获得升职。

The results showed that narcissist employees were more self-promotional of their work and had an inflated sense of power in the workplace.

结果显示，自恋的员工更爱宣传自己的工作成绩，而且会高估自己在职场中的能力。

It also showed that supervisors were more likely to promote employees who displayed these narcissistic traits, possibly due to their grandiose perception and displays of power.

研究还发现，主管更可能提拔那些展现自恋特征的员工，可能是因为他们能制造出华丽的假象，并给人强有力的感觉。
