social stigmatization

“Gift” as a stigma: The role of self-stigmatization in the giftedness crisis and personal identity deformation in adolescents

The relevance of the study is due to the fact that adolescence is a sensitive period for the development of giftedness and the formation of a stable personal identity, a system of relationships with oneself and other people, which can be hindered by experiencing social stigmatization. In this context, identification of socio-psychological resources for maintaining subjective stability and proactive development of personality giftedness in the crisis conditions of the modern educational environment seems to be necessary.
