This study aimed to explore the effect of covert narcissism on anger expression and the mediating effects of self-presentational motivation and self-presentational expectancies. After being administered to 487 university students, final analysis utilized the following questionnaires: covert narcissism scale, self-presentational motivation scale, self-presentational expectancies scale, and anger expression scale. Findings are as follows. First, covert narcissism had positive correlation with the gap of self-presentational motivation and self-presentational expectancies. Covert narcissism positively correlated with anger-in and anger-out, the sub-factors of anger expression, while the gap of Self-presentational motivation and self-presentational expectancies had positive correlations with all sub-factors of anger expression. Secondly, the gap of self-presentational motivation and self-presentational expectancies partially mediated the relationship between covert narcissism and anger-in. However, the gap of self-presentational motivation and self-presentational expectancies did not indicate a mediation effect on the relationship between both anger-out or anger-control and covert narcissism. Based on these findings, implications and limitations are presented for both counseling and future studies.
