- Thus far, we’ve focused almost exclusively on the perspective of the biased person-that is, on the person who has stereotyped, is being prejudiced, or discriminates. Now, however, we’ll consider the perspective and the experience of the person who is experiencing prejudice, and we’ll think about ways to cope while experiencing prejudice.
Social Stigma: The experience of being socially discredited or being perceived as flawed by a trait or characteristic.
Stigma Management: Strategies (at the individual-level) for coping with stigma.
Withdrawal: The tendency to avoid people who treat a stigmatized person stereotypically; a strategy for managing stigma by gaining social acceptance.
Passing: Methods and strategies for concealing one’s stigmatizing attribute or condition from others; a strategy for managing stigma by gaining social acceptance.
Visibility: Refers to how visibly obvious (vs. concealable) an attribute, condition, or status is.
Self-Promotion: Showing other people that you are multi-dimensional and competent in several areas; a strategy for managing stigma by gaining social acceptance.
Compensation: Deliberately presenting to others behavior that contradicts the assumptions held about your abilities or character; a strategy for managing stigma by gaining social acceptance.
Attributing Negative Outcomes to Prejudice: Discounting some failure or negative evaluation by recognizing the possibility that it may have been the result of prejudice; a strategy for managing stigma by protecting psychological well-being.
Devaluing Negative Outcome Dimensions: Choosing to care less about the attribute, status, or condition that tends to be targeted by prejudice; a strategy for managing stigma by protecting psychological well-being.
Self-Affirmation: Rebuilding self-worth when threatened by focusing on an important, positive aspect of one’s self-concept that has not been threatened; a strategy for managing stigma by protecting psychological well-being.
Virtual Identity: Identities that other people see or assume of you.
Actual Identity: Identities that you see in yourself or actually have.
Mindfulness: A technique that shifts the focus to engaging and responding to, rather than disengaging and trying to escape from, people’s thoughts and reactions to stigma; a strategy for managing stigma by protecting psychological well-being.
Self-Stigma: Internalizing others’ negative assumptions about oneself.
Which of these categories is about taking pride in the social group that you are a member of? Like focusing on the good sides of being a member of a social group instead of the downsides and/or focusing on strength required to overcome stigmatization (that others might not have).
Self affirmation seem similar but it is about different aspects of the individual, not of the label that the individual wears.
