Men Who Take Selfies Exhibit Traits of Narcissism and Psychopathy

Well men and women are equal, and there's a fuckload more women who take selfies. Therefore there's more female narcissists and psychopaths.

Men Who Take Selfies Exhibit Traits of Narcissism and Psychopathy

Hmm... I guess that means women who take selfies would also exhibit traits of narcissism and psychopathy?

I believe women were excluded from the study for some reason...

I tried to access the full study, but therre is a charge that I don't want to pay. But there is one really big red flag that is glaringly obvious. Both professors involved in thi8s study are in the School of Communications. That tells me to suspect that they are not schooled in psychology and therefore not qualified to conduct a study in which they make psychological asessments. A second red flag is that many people involved in many activities will exhibit "traits" consistent with a variety of mental disorders. The exhibition of "traits" does not make them diagnosable. Unless I can read it further, I'm guessing that this study is meaningless. It is also possible (even likely) that the reporter is misinterpreting the results. Very few reporters are qualified to analyze scientific papers.
