Background: Selfie a generalized expression for a "self portrait”, has become a fad among today's youth. People love to take and post their selfies even when they are in critical situations or any annoying surroundings. For example, when someone met with an accident, people take pictures, rather than calling ambulance. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the narcissism and selfie users among college students of Coimbatore, India. Materials and Methods: Descriptive design was adapted. Conveniently selected 100 post graduate students were assessed on selfie usage and narcissism. Results: Study found that 67% of the students moderately using selfie and 50% of the students had narcissism. Narcissism had a significant relationship with selfie usage. Conclusion: Study concluded that majority of the college students who were taking selfies and uploading them on social networking sites after editing them had more narcissism. Study recommends that early screening followed by appropriate interventions are required for selfie takers to avoid psychological problems in future. Keywords: Selfie usage, narcissism, students
