Identity - identité
Qui suis-je sur les médias sociaux?
Social(e) Moi
Ce court documentaire en français examine le role des médias sociaux dans la vie des adolescents. Pour les jeunes de cette génération, les médias sociaux sont plus qu'un simple outil de communication: c'est une façon de vivre à travers lesquels ils explorent et créent leurs propres univers -- souvent au détriment des interactions en personne.

Lorsqu'on parle d'identité, que veut-on dire?
When speaking about our identity online, what do we mean?
Identity in the field of psychology can be thought of as "the qualities, beliefs, personality, looks and/or expressions that make a person (self-identity) or group (particular social category or social group)... Categorizing identity can be positive or destructive."
A psychological identity relates to self-image(one's mental model of oneself), self-esteem, and individuality. Weinreich sees identity especially when looking at gender identity as: “how one views oneself both as a person and in relation to other people, ideas and nature. 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 (Weinreich & Saunderson 2003 pp 26–34).
In cognitive psychology, the term "identity" refers to the capacity for self-reflection and the awareness of self (Leary & Tangney 2003, p. 3).
Sociology places some explanatory weight on the concept of role-behavior. The notion of identity negotiation may arise from the learning of social roles through personal experience. Identity negotiation is a process in which a person negotiates with society at large regarding the meaning of their identity.
Psychologists most commonly use the term "identity" to describe personal identity, or the idiosyncratic things that make a person unique. Sociologists, however, often use the term to describe social identity, or the collection of group memberships that define the individual. However, these uses are not proprietary, and each discipline may use either concept and each discipline may combine both concepts when considering a person's identity.
Neuroscientists also draw upon these fields to study the neurobiological basis of personal and social identity.
