We examined the relationship between narcissism -- at the trait and state levels -- and advice taking, and its mechanisms. * Trait narcissism and advice taking were negatively related, but this emerged only when controlling for extraversion. * There was a stronger relationship between state narcissism and advice taking than between trait narcissism and advice taking. * The relationship was driven by the perception that others are incompetent and the advice is not useful -- confidence had no effect. * Trait narcissism and advice taking were strongly negatively related under process accountability, due to self-enhancement.
