Personality functioning reflects individual differences in self and interpersonal capacities. This study examined whether narrative identity awareness mediates the associations of rumination and reflection with personality functioning. In a community sample of 424 adults, participants completed self-report measures of personality functioning, rumination, reflection, and narrative identity awareness. Cross-sectional mediation analyses (complete cases, N = 405) showed that rumination was associated with greater impairment, whereas reflection showed a more selective pattern. Narrative identity awareness was associated with lower impairment, and significant indirect associations were observed for both rumination and reflection in the simultaneous model; sensitivity analyses indicated that the indirect association was more robust for reflection than for rumination. Indirect associations were most evident for identity and self-direction, smaller for intimacy, and not statistically detectable for empathy. Component-level analyses indicated that coherence-related facets, particularly causal coherence, showed the most consistent indirect associations.
