Abstract

The 5th International Conference on Social Identity and Health (ICSIH 5) was hosted at Nottingham Trent University, UK on 23rd-24th June 2022. Taking place every two years, the aim of ICSIH is to showcase the latest research on the Social Identity Approach to Health (SIAH; Haslam et al., 2018) to an international audience. This new paradigm within Social Psychology, often referred to as the ‘Social Cure’, (e.g., Jetten et al., 2012), articulates the myriad ways in which group memberships – and their associated social identities – impact on health and well-being. Alongside growing academic interest and engagement, Social Cure insights are increasingly being adopted in clinical, health, sport, and organisational settings. ICSIH 5 built on the success of the previous ICSIH conferences held in Exeter, UK (2012), Ottawa, Canada (2014), Brisbane, Australia (2016), and Lausanne, Switzerland (2018). Over 120 delegates from across the EU, USA, UK, and Australia attended – the largest number of delegates in the conference’s history.

As ICSIH organisers, we were inspired to curate this special issue to showcase the rich and varied range of research presented at the conference, as well as to provide a platform for the work of those who were unable to attend. To this end, we have collected 19 articles which reflect the increasing methodological pluralism in this area, as well as its expanding international reach. This special issue thus represents the diversity of the SIAH research community, as well as capturing areas of methodological and theoretical innovation.
