Narcissism, Psychopathy, Borderline: How to Spot It and What to Do About It | W. Keith Campbell

Hey! This was one of my favorite episodes to date. I spoke with Dr. Keith Campbell about narcissism, psychopathy, and borderline personality disorder and which Big 5 personality traits lead to these characteristics, how to identify them, as well as what you can do if you are prone to narcissism, and more.

W. Keith Campbell, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology at the University of Georgia, is the author of more than 200 scientific papers and several books, including The Narcissism Epidemic: Living in the Age of Entitlement (with Jean Twenge) and The New Science of Narcissism. His work on narcissism has appeared in USA Today, Newsweek, and The New York Times, and he has made numerous radio and television appearances, from the Today Show to the Joe Rogan Experience. He also wrote the popular TED-Ed lesson on narcissism. He holds a BA from the University of California at Berkeley, an MA from San Diego State University, a Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and did his postdoctoral work at Case Western Reserve University.
