John Turner (psychologist)
John Charles Turner (September 7, 1947 – July 24, 2011)[1] was a British social psychologist who, along with colleagues, developed the self-categorization theory. Amongst other things the theory states that the self is not a foundational aspect of cognition, but rather that the self is an outcome of cognitive processes and an interaction between the person and the social context.[2] Self categorization theory was developed as a companion theory to the Social identity theory,[3] and the two theories taken together are known as the social identity approach.
