Self-Awareness

Directions

Increasing our self-awareness of how we experience in-group and out-group identities can play a significant role in our own cultural awareness and competence.  Please answer the following questions in 1-2 short sentences as a pathway to self-awareness of your own dominant and accessible group identity statuses:

First, identify your major group affiliations, including race and ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation.

Next, for each group affiliation, determine whether this is an in-group or out-group.

Lastly, reflect on your attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors toward yourself as a member of the identity group as well as toward people who do not share your group affiliation.
