'''Identity formation''' is the [[process]] of the development of the distinct personality of an [[individual]] regarded as a persisting [[entity]] (known as [[personal continuity]]) in a particular stage of life in which individual characteristics are possessed by which a person is recognized or known (such as the establishment of a [[reputation]]). This process defines an individual to [[other]]s and [[self|themselves]]. Pieces of the entity's actual identity include a sense of continuity, a sense of [[uniqueness]] from others, and a sense of [[affiliation]]. Identity formation leads to a number issues of [[Personal identity (philosophy)|personal identity]] and an [[Identity (social science)|identity]] where the individual has some sort of comprehension of him or herself as a discrete, separate entity. This may be through [[individuation]] whereby the undifferentiated individual tends to become unique, or undergoes stages through which differentiated facets of a person's life tend toward becoming a more indivisible whole.

The term [[collective identity]] is a sense of belonging to a group (the collective) that is so strong that a person who identifies with the group will dedicate his or her life to the group over individual identity: he or she will defend the views of the group and assume risks for the group, sometimes as great as loss of life. The cohesiveness of the collective goes beyond community, as the collective suffers the pain of grief from the loss of a member.
