PLoS ONE 15(11):Įditor: Kenji Hashimoto, Chiba Daigaku, JAPAN These findings should be considered when assessing individuals at risk for FA and when developing (therapeutic) intervention programs to deal with problematic use of social platforms.Ĭitation: Brailovskaia J, Rohmann E, Bierhoff H-W, Margraf J (2020) The anxious addictive narcissist: The relationship between grandiose and vulnerable narcissism, anxiety symptoms and Facebook Addiction. Results enter new territory by revealing hidden similarities between vulnerable and grandiose narcissists, emphasizing that similar mechanisms might explain their enhanced risk to develop addictive tendencies of Facebook use. Moreover, the association between both forms of narcissism and FA was partly mediated by anxiety symptoms. In a sample of 327 Facebook users (age: M( SD) = 23.67(3.96), range: 18–56), both forms of narcissism were positively related to anxiety symptoms and FA.
The present study investigated the links between vulnerable and grandiose narcissism, anxiety symptoms, and FA. While previous research mainly focused on the mechanisms that connect grandiose narcissism and addictive use of the social platform Facebook, it remained unclear why individuals with enhanced levels of vulnerable narcissism are at risk to develop Facebook Addiction (FA). The agency is expected to be tasked with processing an influx of mail-in ballots given the COVID-19 pandemic.Vulnerable narcissism and grandiose narcissism share the core of the narcissistic self but are considered as separate forms of this personality trait. The US Postal Service has been thrust into the spotlight recently as the upcoming 2020 presidential election approaches, an election that the service will likely play a large role in. A USPS spokesperson told Business Insider in an email that "the vulnerabilities identified in this report were found, scoped and addressed by the Postal Service.
The audit called for the service to address and fix the vulnerabilities found in the apps it was using. The USPS Corporate Information Security Office called the flaws in the system "catastrophic." Hackers have not penetrated the agency's systems, but the holes in the apps could have allowed them to access sensitive data. The US Postal Service has reportedly used outdated IT systems for years that could have made the agency vulnerable to hackers as well as a "potential financial impact of over $1 billion," per a report from Motherboard.Ī memo sent on July 27 by the USPS Office of Inspector General outlined how an audit discovered "the Postal Service allowed applications to operate in the production environment with significant vulnerabilities that increase the risk of disclosure of sensitive information and potential impact to business operations."
A memo released by the agency in July detailed the discovery, including that of "significant vulnerabilities that increase the risk of disclosure of sensitive information and potential impact to business operations.".The US Postal Service has reportedly used outdated IT systems for years that could have opened up the agency to hackers and a "potential financial impact of over $1 billion," per a Motherboard report.
