Expanding a typology of the dimensions of marked relationships: A theoretical note

Abstract
This paper expands a typology of underlying elements that influence the role of the stigmatized individual in interpersonal relations. The six dimensions of Jones et al. (1984)—concealability, course, disruptiveness, aesthetic qualities, origin, and peril—are expanded and altered to include the stigmatized individual as a more active actor in the labeling process. Two additional dimensions are added: exploitability and historical precedent, and origin is expanded into two sub‐dimensions, primary and secondary responsibility.
