Social identity, intergroup behavior, group processes, deindividuation, social categorizationAbstract
The Social Identity perspective in Social Psychology tries to explain group phenomena (in-and out-group). Although originally, the theory of Social Identity by Tajfel (1984) studied the intergroup relationships, more recently, the Theory of Self-Categorization (Turner, 1999) analyzes group processes in either small or big groups. The Social Identity perspective has very important implications in the definition of the Social Psychology, since it provides significant means to comprehend group processes, collective behaviour, self-concept, and personality.
