Description

Score the 12-item Super-Brief Pathological Narcissism Inventory (SB-PNI)

Usage

score_sbpni(
  df,
  item_prefix = "SBPNI",
  max_impute = 0.2,
  drop_items = FALSE,
  min_value = 1,
  max_value = 100
)

Arguments

df	a data.frame containing the 12-item SBPNI items to be scored
item_prefix	a character prefix of the items names in df to be scored. Default: "SBPNI"
max_impute	the proportion of missingness [0..1) or number [1..n] of missing values per scale. Below this threshold, the person subscale mean will be imputed for missing items.
drop_items	whether to remove the item-level data from the df. Default: FALSE
min_value	the minimum value for the item anchors, used in reverse scoring. Default: 1
max_value	the highest value for the item anchors, used in reverse scoring. Default: 7

Details

Adds two columns, SBPNI_Grandiosity and SBPNI_Vulnerability, to df containing the grandiosity and vulnerability scales, respectively.

Note: the default SBPNI scoring uses the mean of the items for the scales.

SBPNI10: (36V) Right now, it's hard for me to feel good about myself because I do not know if other people like me.
