Place identity or the place of identity: contribution to a theory of social identity of place

Abstract

The relationship between the place where we live and our sense of who we are, has on one hand been neglected in social psychology, and on the other, within environmental psychology addressed mainly in the context of personal identity. The main objective of this thesis is to move the comprehension of place into the context of inter-group relationships, using the concepts of social identity and entitativity from social psychology. Specifically, this thesis aims to contribute to understanding the impact of place of residence from two points of view: from the residents’ point of view, place of residence as a basis for self-categorization and identification, leading to phenomena of in-group favouritism and out-group discrimination; and from the observers’ point of view, place of residence as an important source of information for forming impressions about its residentes; ABSTRACT: A importância do lugar onde residimos para a compreensão da nossa identidade tem sido, por um lado negligenciada no âmbito da psicologia social e por outro lado no âmbito da psicologia ambiental abordada essencialmente no contexto da identidade pessoal. O principal objectivo desta tese é trazer o estudo do lugar para o âmbito das relações intergrupais, recorrendo aos conceitos de identidade social e entitatividade desenvolvidos no âmbito da psicologia social. Em particular, esta tese tem por objectivo contribuir para a compreensão do impacto do lugar em que residimos de dois pontos de vista: do ponto de vista do residente, o lugar de residência como uma base para a auto-categorização e identificação, conduzindo a fenómenos de favoritismo pelo grupo próprio e discriminação em relação aos outros grupos; do ponto de vista do observador, o lugar de residência como uma fonte importante de informação para a formação de impressões sobre os seus residentes.
