碩士 / 中山醫學大學 / 心理學系暨臨床心理學碩士班 / 102 / This study aimed to investigate the status and related factors of professional identity in the students studying for a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology, and to explore the relationship between professional identity (PI) and subjective well-being (SW). The study adopted both a qualitative and a cross-sectional quantitative study designs. In total, five students were interviewed in depth and 278 students were recruited in the quantitative study. The information from the qualitative study displayed some favorable factors and disadvantage factors for graduate students to develop PI. These factors would be compiled in the part of PI in the questionnaire. The questionnaire including questions regarding PI, SW, and personal data was distributed to the participants.
The results from the quantitative study showed the average of PI was at a high-intermediate level. The demographic variables did not show significant effects on PI. The extent of PI was different by having someone(s) to identify with, the extent of being interested in clinical psychology, the extent of the fitness for the career, and the extent of loving the profession regardless of salary. The latter three variables still showed significant effects on PI by regression analysis.
The results showed the average of SW was at a poor level in the participants. The positive correlation between PI and SW was limited (r＝013, p<.05). The findings from regression analysis indicated that only the extent of being interested in clinical psychology and the extent of the fitness for the career, but not the extent of PI, showed the effects on SW.
In summary, graduate students in clinical psychology had a high-intermediate level of PI. However, their low level of SW should be concerned indeed. The extent of being interested in clinical psychology and the extent of the fitness for the career were important indicators for PI and SW. Further studies on these issues are recommended.
