According the uncertainty-identity theory, Chen's feeling of uncertainty might increase Chen's identification with a group.
This social psychological theory was developed by Michael Hogg in 2000.
The theory analyzes and describes how feelings of self-uncertainty motivate people to identify with groups in order to reduce their uncertainty.
