Citat:
Han lär få höga poäng på mätinstrument för narcissism i varje fall.Och då pedofilen konstaterats ha klara narcissistiska drag kan detta förklara att tycke uppstod mellan dessa båda.
Och inte bara det. Narcissister har tydligen en större tolerans för andra narcissisters beteenden jämfört med vanliga människor. Pusselbitarna faller på plats.

Narcissistisk-toleransteorin är intressant då den åtminstone delvis skulle kunna förklara hur FF kunde ge sig in i en relation med en dömd pedofil.

Their study gauged reactions to actors exhibiting narcissistic or non-narcissistic behavior. The results? They found narcissism was positively associated with liking narcissistic actors, and negatively associated with liking actors who were non-narcissists. They suggest that these results were mediated by perceived similarity, as well as tendencies of selective interpretation when it comes to assessing the actors’ behavior.
Burton et al. explain that the “narcissistic-tolerance theory” holds that due to perceived similarity, narcissists are more tolerant and fond of narcissistic peers. They note this explains why narcissists often gravitate towards each other, perhaps reflecting a viewpoint of narcissism as less objectionable than most people would perceive.
Their results not only support the theory of narcissistic tolerance, but they further found it was apparently due, at least in part, to perceived similarity. Upon recognizing similarity to narcissistic actors, narcissistic participants selectively interpreted the actors’ traits more positively, which increased liking. Burton et al. note these findings corroborate prior research suggesting that narcissists treat people better when they perceive them as more similar to themselves.
