Answer to Question 2

Ethnic identity refers to an individual's sense of belonging to an ethnic group, which is defined by one's cultural heritage, and includes attributes such as values, traditions, and language. Researchers believe that ethnic identity is particularly important for members of cultural minorities living in a heterogeneous society, because the identity may provide members with a sense of belonging and acceptance in societies where the majority group sometimes holds negative stereotypes about them. This sense of belonging helps diffuse the negative effects of social devaluation that members of minorities sometimes feel.
