Social Identity

Juergen Grimm, Peter Schmidt and Josef Seethaler developed in 2011 a test to measure social identity. This test emphasizes national identity with its dimensions patriotism, nationalism and cosmopolitism. A pre-test was conducted in 2011. The test to measure social identity was used for the first time in the research project "Media - Patriotism - Integration" und was presented at the first Forum of Social Sciences. In 2012 Juergen Grimm and Christiane Grill included the dimension of ethnic identity.

Besides a test to measure the multiple collective identity was developed.
