Communication 382 Haobang Lu 3/6/15 CHAPTER ONE 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Background Quite a number of social scientific researches in the communication mainstream are developing at a faster rate, particularly researches with a purpose of determining the relationship between the social networking sites (the use of Instagram) and narcissism. It is therefore quite in order to explicitly establish an appropriate technique of variable determination and hypothesis testing to effectively address the
generosity is an attempt to reassure and cement (or turn to reality) the uncertain ideal image we have of ourselves. Giddens (1991) is of the opinion that narcissism does not revolve around self-love but rather around self-hatred, and that a highly narcissistic person lacks an identity of his own and is therefore constantly trying to fill this empty space by reflecting the self in other people.

If you haven’t already, you will one day. You will eventually find yourself encountering all the critics when it comes to parenting. Whether it is the in-laws, your own parents, or your friends and family. Most people are under the impression that because they have managed to keep some human beings alive, they have this whole parenting concept on lock. Phillip Larkin’s poem “This Be The Verse,” challenges this perspective by hypothesizing that children’s poor behavior and psychological issues are
they become more aggressive and less understandable. Researchers had shown that kids who spend tons of hours on social media tend to be aggressive teenagers in the future. For example, teenagers who frequently use networking tend to develop more narcissistic inclination forgetting others’ people feeling. Violence can change a kid's point of view and have a huge influence on what they might become in the future. The excess of violence on social media throughout time might become joyful to their views

This is revealed earlier on with his fixation of having her take his last name, thus marking her as his. Just like a true narcissist this brings out a narcissistic rage in Henchard. He quickly begins to criticize and rage at her for anything she does that reminds him of his former life. For example, “her occasional pretty and picturesque use of dialect words”, which reveal her poor upbringing, force Henchard

needed to marry a beautiful virgin to change back into handsome prince. Reason for his change into ugly beast could be that he was more or less materialistic person who did not care anything else but outer beauty and money. Maybe even he had some narcissistic traits such as manipulating one to stay with him, thinking that relationships are game and he is the center of the world.

In addition to being reflective of narcissistic tendencies, the creation of the ideal self through selfies and social media can created an altered perception of self that conflicts with their partner’s perception of the individual (Halpern et al., 2016). These differing perceptions are troublesome
like a bad person for thinking that way. A lot of people regard narcissism as bad and selfish and make you out to be an ignorant villain. Growing up I have always considered myself to be quite narcissistic and everyone around me always made me feel like it was a crime to think highly of myself.
