Abstract

The current study examined the effects of narcissism and should counterfactual thinking on the hindsight bias, and the moderating role of outcome favorability. Experimental data from 169 participants revealed that narcissism and outcome favorability interactively influenced should counterfactual thinking, which in turn influenced the hindsight bias.
