   What is stigmatized identity?

   • Stigmatized also has a particular meaning. An identity that is stigmatized is socially devalued with negative stereotypes and beliefs attached to the identity ( Crocker, Major, & Steele, 1998; Goffman, 1963 ). Moreover, stigma results in lowered power and status with resulting discriminatory outcomes ( Link & Phelan, 2001 ).

   How can one deal with stigmatization?

   • One strategy for dealing with stigmatization is presenting yourself as a member of a different group than the stigmatized group you belong to. This approach is used by some stigmatized individuals to reject prevailing judgments or prejudice and develop new standards that value their group identity.
