Abstract

In a longitudinal field study we examined popularity in 15 peer groups (N=273). We measured narcissism, ability emotional intelligence (EI), explicit and implicit self-esteem, and popularity at zero acquaintance and three months later. Using inferential network analysis (TERGM) we found that narcissism and EI had opposite effects on long-term popularity.
