Talk:Identity (social science)

message: Merge Psychological identity into Identity (social science) since the former is a stub that falls under the latter. Keep these distinct from Personal identity, which has an entirely different set of arguments. Possibly rename the philosophical notion to Personal identity (philosophy) to avoid confusion.

thread_title: Re: 3-way merge proposal

message: There is a bit of mention of sociology in the page currently, but it's wholly inadequate. Identity is a concept used in sociology even more than in psychology or anthropology, and most of the theoretical, conceptual, and significant empirical foci are missing completely. When I have time, I'll compose text for it (or edit what someone else adds, if needed). 
If anyone is fluent in the sociology of identity, please feel free to insert a major section on it here!  It's very much needed!  I just don't have time to write it right now.

message: this is a totally biased one sided observation of identity. a lot of conjecture, poor sentence structure, incomplete sentence and few citationsMgdyason (talk) 15:25, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Mgdyason. I'm glad you want to improve this article but could you please offer some specific constructive points where you think there could be improvement? Making generic claims and inserting your own commentary within the article does not help us to improve it. I advise you use the talk page to discuss any specific issues you have with this article.

thread_title:  need to be totally rewritten 

message: This is just a quick observation, having reached these pages from the Cultural sensitivity article. I think that both this article and Cultural identity  need to clarify what, if any, are the differences, or else perhaps suggest a merge. According to this article "...the collection of social roles that a person might play, known as either the social identity or the cultural identity...".

thread_title: Clarification or merge with Cultural identity

message: Edits such as this:
"Gender identity forms an important part of identity in psychology, as it can dictate to a significant[quantify] degree how one views oneself both as a person and in relation to other people, ideas and nature.[citation needed] Other aspects of identity, such as racial, religious, ethnic, occupational… etc. may also be more or less significant – or significant in some situations but not in others"
The gender identity portion seems like an incomplete thought with no citation. "Other aspects" seems like an afterthought and ends in "etc" which seems rather sloppy. The paragraph in general is not very informative and doesn't scan particularly well. I hope this is not a rude suggestion but perhaps it could be re-written in a more academic manner or removed for the time being? SnarkAttackAhh (talk) 21:45, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
