Social identities are a way in which a person’s physical appearance can be presented to others within society. The ability to recognize their own social identities can be seen as a way for an individual to recognize another’s social identities.

Identity is vital to every person. Every individual has his or her own identity as well as his own values. It is these values that help describe the individual’s identity. The various aspects that make an individual’s identity is the gender, physical ability, race and sexual orientation.

at the identity status of individuals, the significant link between NSSI and identity once again emerges suggesting that is more important as to what identity status an individual has achieved (Luyckx et al, 2015b). Furthermore, in this same study, Luyckx et al (2015b) found that individuals who were currently in moratorium were more likely to have engaged in NSSI in the past, but not the present.

Through the process of socialization, individuals acquire their identities, but this issue cause different understandings according to sociological accounts. Here, I will show these accounts, and make an analysis understood by

Romeo and Juliet refines the central idea of individual identity versus group identification in the play so far by using the two conflicts which are internal conflict and external conflict. In Act 1 and 2 these two conflicts show Romeo and Juliet's meaning of forbidden love. Also how the two conflicts showed their emotions and actions that made it forbidden love. In Shakespeare's play, Juliet influences the idea of forbidden love with individual identity and group identification.Juliet states, “My

In the short story “Initiation”, the author, Sylvia Plath, conveys the theme that being part of a group and having friends is great, but being an individual and having an individual identity is stronger. The narrator simply states that Millicent was “plain” and “shy”, but also tells us that “Tomorrow she would come to school, proudly, laughingly, without lipstick, with her brown hair straight and shoulder length, and then everybody would know, even the boys would know, that she was one of the elect
