Professional identity formation (PIF) is an ongoing journey where individuals internalize the characteristics, values, and behaviors of the medical profession. This concept, deeply rooted in medical tradition, has gained attention in recent decades, shifting from a passive to a more intentional process. Theories of PIF draw from theories of personal identity formation and moral reasoning.
The purpose of this paper is to describe the development of a didactic on PIF presented at the 2024 Society for Academic Emergency Medicine annual conference.
MATERIALS & METHODS: The didactic was developed through literature review, expert consultation, and iterative discussions within a team of educators and was attended by approximately 20 participants.
Through interactive exercises, reflective tools, and literature-based insights, participants were prompted to explore their own PIF journeys.
DISCUSSION & CONCLUSION: This session emphasized the importance of fostering a holistic understanding of medical training and integrated personal development with broader societal and moral expectations as well as supported the ongoing evolution of professional identity.
职业身份形成（PIF）是一个持续的过程，在此过程中，个体将医学职业的特征、价值观和行为内化。这一概念深深植根于医学传统，在近几十年受到关注，已从一个被动过程转变为一个更具主动性的过程。职业身份形成理论借鉴了个人身份形成理论和道德推理理论。
本文旨在描述在2024年学术急诊医学协会年会上展示的关于职业身份形成的教学内容的发展情况。
该教学内容通过文献综述、专家咨询以及教育工作者团队内部的反复讨论而制定，约20名参与者参加了此次教学。
通过互动练习、反思工具和基于文献的见解，促使参与者探索自己的职业身份形成历程。
本次会议强调了培养对医学培训的全面理解以及将个人发展与更广泛的社会和道德期望相结合的重要性，并支持职业身份的持续演变。
