Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Patrick's pride in his Irish heritage suggests that he has a strong social identity, or a sense of belonging and connection to a particular social group. This is different from a reference group (a group to which an individual compares themselves) or a social category (a group to which an individual belongs based on shared characteristics such as race or gender). Stereotype vulnerability refers to the risk of being negatively stereotyped or discriminated against due to belonging to a certain group, and there is no information in the question to suggest that Patrick is experiencing this vulnerability.
