Ethnic identity

Explanation:

Ethnic identity refers to how an individual associate and classify themselves under a particular Ethnic group. This brings a sense of belonging to that individual. Foreclosure is the first stage in which a person is not exploring their identity, moratorium is when they begin to explore their ethnic identity, last one is when they have finally achieved it through exploration.
