dc.description.abstractDoes attraction change with attitude alignment? Does narcissism interact with attitude alignment? The phenomenon of attitude alignment is when an individual shifts their attitude towards another person, and attitude alignment results in greater attraction. Narcissism may moderate the effect of attitude alignment on attraction where those who have more narcissist qualities may be even more attracted to someone who aligns their attitude because of the narcissist’s inflated self-concept. In the present study, participants were asked to envision themselves in a situation in which a hypothetical partner either aligned with their views or did not. A narcissism inventory was also completed. While the study replicated previous findings that attitude alignment does result in greater attraction, narcissism did not predict attraction. The interaction of narcissism and attitude alignment also did not significantly predict attraction.
