The Connections Between Self-Esteem and Psychopathology (2011, background): “2009), perfectionism (Zeigler-Hill and Terry 2007), and narcissism (Jordan et al. 2003; Zeigler-Hill 2006; cf. Bosson et al. 2008).”
Self-compassion versus global self-esteem: two different ways of relating to oneself. (2009, background): “Of course, high self-esteem is not always unstable, contingent, narcissistic, or ego-defensive—healthy and secure forms of high self-esteem exist as well ( Jordan, Spencer, Zanna, Hoshino-Browne & Correll, 2003 ).”
High implicit self‐esteem is not necessarily advantageous: discrepancies between explicit and implicit self‐esteem and their relationship with anger expression and psychological health (2007, background): “21: 319–339 (2007) DOI: 10.1002/per historically positive self-views (Jordan et al., 2003) or buffers against the negative effects of low explicit SE (Bosson et al., 2003).”
Self-esteem and passion for activities (2011, background): “Implicit self-esteem, then, given its association with obsessive passion, may also be linked with addictive behavior, perhaps initiated for self-protective or compensatory reasons (Gregg & Sedikides, 2010; Jordan et al., 2003; Sedikides et al., in press).”
The positive effects of mindfulness on self-esteem (2013, background): “Specifically, it has been noted that fragile or defensive high self-esteem (Jordan et al., 2003; Kernis, 2003) is a defensive attempt to bolster or enhance explicit views of oneself, despite implicit or unconscious low self-esteem.”
Untangling the links between narcissism and self‐esteem: A theoretical and empirical review. (2008, neutral): “For instance, Campbell et al. had people rate the set of pleasant and unpleasant IAT words used by Jordan et al. (2003) along the dimensions of agency and communion.”
Narcissistic Fragility: Rethinking Its Links to Explicit and Implicit Self-esteem (2010, background): “These include in-group bias and dissonance reduction (Jordan et al., 2003, Studies 2 and 3), less positive interpretations of ambiguous feedback (Schröder-Abé et al., 2007, Study 1), and increases in conviction strength and estimated consensus following manipulations of uncertainty and failure…”
Chapter 3 Action‐Based Model of Dissonance: A Review, Integration, and Expansion of Conceptions of Cognitive Conflict (2009, background): “More recently, Jordan et al. (2003) found support for self-consistency theory’s predictions using an approach that separates trait self-esteem into an explicit (more conscious) and implicit (less conscious) dimension.”
Lack of reciprocity, narcissism, anger, and instigated workplace incivility: A moderated mediation model (2013, neutral): “As in previous research (eg, Jordan, Spencer, Zanna, Hoshino-Browne, & Correll, 2003 ; Penney & Spector, 2002 ), we used a Likert format instead.”
Reliability of Implicit Self–Esteem Measures Revisited (2011, background): “Unfortunately, whereas Jordan et al. (2003) did not report effect sizes nor internal consistencies of their self/not-self IAT version, the relatively low internal consistencies of their self/object IAT version (Spearman-Brown coefficient ¼ .62 in Study 1, and Spearman-Brown coefficient ¼ .73 in…”
Authentic and Hubristic Pride: The Affective Core of Self-esteem and Narcissism (2009, background): “…individuals with dissociated implicit and explicit self-views and, specifically, low implicit and high explicit self-esteem, respond to the threat defensively and engage in compensatory self-enhancement (Bosson, Brown, Zeigler-Hill, & Swann, 2003; Jordan et al., 2003; McGregor & Marigold, 2003).”
