Social Identity is the understanding of who we are‚ and reciprocally‚ other people’s understanding of themselves. Richard Jenkins believed that this social identity is achieved through socialization within social groups. He argued that by placing themselves in the role of others‚ people‚ particularly children‚ gain a greater understanding of the role that they should play. For example‚ a six-year-old girl playing "mommy" with her dolls will‚ as she gets into the role‚ begin to understand what a mother
