    • Nursing Education
    • Professional Identity Development
    • Qualitative Research

    Background:

    • Understanding the formation of professional identity is crucial in nursing education.
    • Early experiences shape a student's perception of their role as a nurse.
    • A gap exists in understanding the initial stages of identity development in nursing students.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore how beginning nursing students develop a sense of "being a nurse."
    • To analyze student narratives for insights into professional identity formation.
    • To identify key processes in the early development of a nursing identity.

    Main Methods:

    • Secondary analysis of qualitative data.
    • Nonexperimental descriptive research design.
    • Purposive sampling of 10 sophomore nursing students at a rural liberal arts campus.

    Main Results:

    • One major theme identified: "Doing Learning Knowing Speaking."
    • This theme represents the pathway through which students begin to feel like nurses.
    • Student narratives revealed a multi-faceted process of identity integration.

    Conclusions:

    • The "Doing Learning Knowing Speaking" process is fundamental for early nursing identity development.
    • Nursing programs should support and foster this developmental process.
    • Further research can explore this theme in diverse nursing student populations.
