Stigma
The term refers to a characteristic that is viewed negatively by society or a group and leads to the discrediting of individuals who possess this characteristic. Stigmas can refer, for example, to members of certain ethnic groups or marginalized social groups. Even a diagnosis of a mental disorder or an illness such as AIDS can be accompanied by stigmatization, depending on the social environment.
