'''Narcissistic rivalry''' "causes individuals to hold confrontational self-protection strategies, pursue hegemony, and maintain grand self-image through aggressive means such as attacking and degrading others, or through reactive aggression in the face of perceived threats, resulting in interpersonal conflict".<ref>[https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0191886923000776#:~:text=Narcissistic%20rivalry%20pushed%20individuals%20to,et%20al.%2C%202020).

In 2023, the PsyPost website noted:
{{Cquote|Grandiose narcissism is a personality trait associated with individuals who have an inflated sense of self-importance, a strong need for admiration, and a tendency to exaggerate their own abilities and achievements. People with grandiose narcissism often exhibit a sense of entitlement, a desire for power and control, and a lack of empathy towards others.
This trait can be divided into two components: narcissistic admiration and narcissistic rivalry. Narcissistic admiration involves an excessive self-centered desire to be admired by others. It encompasses a deep yearning for constant praise, recognition, and validation of one’s perceived superiority and uniqueness. It is often driven by an inflated sense of self-importance and the need for external validation. On the other hand, narcissistic rivalry entails a need to devalue others, a desire to witness their failures, and aggression towards them.<ref>[https://www.psypost.org/highly-intelligent-grandiose-narcissists-are-less-prone-to-narcissistic-rivalry/ Highly intelligent grandiose narcissists are less prone to narcissistic rivalry], PsyPost, June 22, 2023</ref>}}

A 2023 Australian study found that highly intelligent grandiose narcissists (whose [[intelligence quotient]] is above 115 or 120) are less likely to exhibit narcissistic rivalry.<ref>[https://www.psypost.org/highly-intelligent-grandiose-narcissists-are-less-prone-to-narcissistic-rivalry/ Highly intelligent grandiose narcissists are less prone to narcissistic rivalry], PsyPost, June 22, 2023</ref>
