Abstract: «Person Oriented Concept of Happiness», developed by the author, which describes correlation of the systems «Egoism» and «Personal Uniqueness» in the process of self-realization of a person, necessitates to conduct comparative and descriptive analysis of these systems with the concept of «Narcissism», that has both common and different features in the works of different authors. The results of the questionnaire «Egoism, Personal Uniqueness» compared to the results of the questionnaire «Narcissism» show that moderate positive correlations between the notions of «egoism» and «narcissism» are more often found on the second level of «basic egoism» in person-oriented conception of happiness. Internal reliability and external validity of the questionnaire «Egoism, Personal Uniqueness» make it possible to consider it a suitable instrument for measuring basic components of person-oriented conception of happiness.
