= Social Identity Model of Deindividuation Effects =

Background Information
Deindividuation is basically when one person does not think of themselves as an individual being, but rather as a group or more than one being. This does not necessarily mean bad or inappropriate behavior. This means that the group norms are changed. There has been recent studies on the SIDE model may put an end to racism in growing children, as well as social awkwardness. With fresh minds and our growing world of technology, the SIDE model is becoming a more researched topic. The SIDE model tells us that people change their behavior when introduced into groups. For example, when one person engages in an activity, such as a party or social event they change their behavior. They become less individualized and unique and merge themselves with surrounding people to become almost one person. They can act and do things as one group.
