A new study has found that high levels of pathological narcissism is often associated with sexual assault, which carry men.
Survey 234 male students showed that 20% have made some kind of sexual violence. 4% Rape committed.
Pathological narcissism, along with sexual promiscuity and aggression in men have been associated with sexual assault. Pathological narcissism can cause difficulties in relationships with other people. Doctor Emily MuilsoAuthor of the study, said: "As we predicted, the lack of compassion is the main symptom of narcissism."
The researchers found that people with narcissistic traits are commonly used drugs and alcohol as a means of violence. Professor Karen Calhoun, Another study co-author, said: "I think people do not realize how widespread the use of alcohol. It is not so much about how many women drink in total, and about how much they drink at certain while drunk and simply can not be vigilant and aware of your surroundings or present risks. It really puts women at risk. "
People who have higher levels of sexual interest, and those who have many sexual partners, are normal to casual sex. This is one of the risk factors. The perpetrators are usually not strangers, in spite of public opinion about the dangers from strangers. Doctor Muilso said: "It is more likely that a potential abuser may be someone you know very well, for example, the guy sitting next to you in class or at the office."
