Symposium: Identity Management in Stigmatized and Minoritized Contexts: When, How, Why?
This symposium examines how members of stigmatized and minoritized groups manage their identity. It features research showing when and why minority members adjust their self-presentation and how this is perceived by high status majority members. Taken together, the findings presented here suggest that identity management can be used to protect the self while maintaining an unequal status quo.
