[…] l'identité sociale peut se définir comme la partie du concept de soi d'un individu qui résulte de la conscience qu'a cette personne d'appartenir à un groupe ainsi que la valeur émotionnelle qu'il y attache. Selon cette logique, l'individu va rechercher l'appartenance à un groupe dont l'identité est perçue comme étant distincte et positive, dans l'optique de protéger son estime de soi.
