Research related to narcissism is controversial in many regards. Debates about classification, conceptualization, and categorization of narcissism and narcissistic traits continue to rage into the present. However, of all the current debates related to narcissism, perhaps the most intense and contentious are those related to generational differences in narcissism. Beginning in mid-2000s, research emerged suggesting that younger generations were more narcissistic than older generations, both cross-sectionally and cross-temporally. In response to these claims, numerous rebuttals and counterarguments emerged. These debates have continued into the present, with each side of this debate presenting new evidence or rebuttals within the past 2 years. The present chapter seeks to review and synthesize this disparate and contentious literature into a cohesive whole, highlighting clearly established findings, areas of contention, and areas of ongoing debate. Future directions for research are also proposed.
