Types and forms of social identity as a subject of social cognition
The formation of individual’s identity is an actual problem for modern social cognition in both theoretical and empirical aspects. The study of different forms of identity is an important condition for the correct understanding and prediction of modern social processes based on the sociocultural diversity of the world and the multipolarity of its development. The phenomenon of social identity is considered in the context of the theory of socialization, status-role personality theories, as well as other concepts.
