INTRODUCTION & DEFINITION
● Social Identity Theory- Social identity is a person’s sense of who they are
based on their group membership(s). Tajfel (1979) proposed that the groups
(e.g. social class, family, football team etc.) which people belonged to were an
important source of pride and self-esteem. Groups give us a sense of social
identity: a sense of belonging to the social world.
