Social identification denotes individuals' psychological bond with their ingroup. It is an indispensable construct in research on intragroup and intergroup dynamics. Today's understanding of social identification is firmly grounded in self-stereotyping principles (i.e., assimilation to the ingroup prototype). However, we argue for a more integrative approach to understand social identification, including a more prominent role for the personal self. We present the Integrative Model of Social Identification (IMSI) and postulate that there are two cognitive pathways to self-group overlap that can simultaneously yet distinctly explain social identification: self-stereotyping and self-anchoring (i.e., projection of personal self onto ingroup). We review different theoretical and methodological approaches to both processes and integrate them into one model. Subsequently, we empirically demonstrate the positive relationship between self-stereotyping, self-anchoring, and identification in various group contexts and individuals. In sum, our model highlights the dynamic interplay of personal and social self as cornerstones of social identification.

社会认同的整合模型：自我刻板印象和自我锚定是两种认知途径。

社会认同表示个体与他们的群体的心理纽带。它是研究群体内和群体间动力学的必不可少的结构。当今对社会认同的理解牢固地建立在自我定型原则（即与团体原型的同化）上。但是，我们主张采用一种更综合的方法来理解社会认同，包括在个人自我方面扮演更重要的角色。我们提出了社会认同的综合模型（IMSI），并假设有两种认知途径可以使自我群体重叠，但同时又可以清晰地解释社会认同：自我刻板印象和自我锚定（即，将个人自我投射到群体中） 。我们回顾了这两种过程的不同理论和方法论方法，并将它们整合到一个模型中。随后，我们通过经验证明了在各种群体环境和个人中自我刻板印象，自我锚定和认同之间的正向关系。总而言之，我们的模型强调了个人和社会自我的动态相互作用，这是社会认同的基石。
