Role-Based Identity01:21

Role-Based Identity

Role-based identities are central to understanding how individuals navigate social environments by adopting distinct self-conceptions aligned with various societal roles. These identities are not fixed traits but are constructed through personal actions and the social feedback individuals receive in context-specific interactions.

Marcia's Theory of Identity Status01:26

Marcia's Theory of Identity Status

James Marcia's identity status model provides a framework for understanding how adolescents navigate identity formation through varying degrees of exploration and commitment. Marcia's model builds on Erik Erikson's theories of psychosocial development, focusing specifically on how adolescents reconcile individual aspirations with societal expectations. His model describes identity formation as a dynamic process where adolescents move between different states depending on their level of...

Area of Science:

  • Pharmacy Education
  • Professional Identity Development
  • Interprofessional Healthcare

Background:

  • Professional identity (PI) and interprofessional identity (IPI) are crucial for healthcare professionals.
  • Understanding these identities in student pharmacists is vital for effective practice.
  • Perceptions of PI and IPI can evolve throughout pharmacy education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess and compare PI and IPI in third- (P3) and fourth-year (P4) student pharmacists.
  • To explore the intercorrelations between PI and IPI in these student cohorts.
  • To identify factors influencing PI and IPI among student pharmacists.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional survey was administered to P3 and P4 student pharmacists.
  • The Macleod-Clark Professional Identity Scale (MCPIS-9) and Extended Professional Identity Scale (EPIS) were used.
  • Reliability, factor structure, cohort comparisons, correlations, and predictors were analyzed.

Main Results:

  • Both P3 and P4 students demonstrated high PI and IPI.
  • P4 students showed stronger professional association compared to P3 students.
  • PI and IPI were consistent across demographics and academic plans, with weak positive correlations between them.

Conclusions:

  • Student pharmacists possess strong PI and IPI, exhibiting multiple professional identities.
  • PI and IPI are distinct yet related constructs, reinforced by advanced pharmacy practice experiences.
  • These findings have implications for pharmacy curriculum development and professional socialization.
