Excerpt from the first part of the article: A study of German-speaking adults found that people who recalled their parents as overprotective and controlling tended to report stronger impostor feelings and higher levels of vulnerable narcissism. Both impostor feelings and vulnerable narcissism were also linked to higher attachment anxiety and lower trust in others. Despite this overlap, statistical analyses indicated that the impostor self-concept and vulnerable narcissism are distinct psychological characteristics.
