The following information is about Labeling theory.
Labeling theory Defined
The proposition that labels placed on a person may lead him/her to act the role associated with the label whether or not it was initially accurate. When a label is know to others, they may interpret the labeled person’s behavior as abnormal whether it is or not. This changes their actions toward the labeled person so that their interactions reinforce the label. Gifted, learning disabled, underachiever, ADD, and SED are all labels which may affect students’ future behavior even in the absence of objective evidence supporting the label. See interactionism, normal. Labeling Theory Tested: Pygmalion in the Classroom.
This definition is in context to Gifted Education. See more contextual defintions for Labeling theory.
