Unary many-to-many relationships

What's the proper way to create a unary many-to-many relationship? It seems inefficient to add an associative entity to relate an entity to itself.

For that matter, is a proper relationship even an advantage over just, say, creating an integer field and assigning the same number to all the elements in the relationship?
