The Mead's article The Social Self, can be categorized as philosophical, psychological and even scientific paper. It is a philosophical paper because it does not have any abstract, intro, methods, results, conclusion. It is more resembles as a very long intro, in fact. It is a psychological paper because as per Mead's The Social Self, he claims that self-consciousness is awakened only in the presence of conflict that causes disintegration of the organization of habit.
