“…Being cyclical means that by increasing one's competency, one obtains more selfconfidence and improves one's capabilities through a self-reinforcing process (24). Professional socialization is a lifelong process (28,41,42) and does not stop when the period of formal education ends. According to the interactionism theory, the process of professional socialization can be considered as a role-taking process, which requires a continuous modification of one's role, as one enters different working environments with different facilities and challenges (43).…”

Professional socialization is defined as a process through which a person becomes a legitimate member of a professional society. This will have a great impact on an individual’s professional conduct and morality. The aim of this study was to clarify this concept and reduce the ambiguities around it. This was a qualitative research through which the concept of professional socialization was analyzed using Walker and Avant’s eight-step approach. The review of literature for this concept was done using electronic database without any time limitation. The overall search produced about 780 articles, and after reviewing these articles, 21 were selected purposefully. Based on concept analysis, we propose the following analytical definition: Professional socialization is a nonlinear, continuous, interactive, transformative, personal, psychosocial and selfreinforcing process that is formed through internalization of the specific culture of a professional community, and can be affected by individual, organizational and interactional factors. This definition is in accordance with the interactionism perspective. Existence of a particular profession and getting involved in a community of practice are the antecedents of this process, and formation of professional identity and professional development are its consequences. A case model, as well as borderline and related cases, has been introduced for this concept. The results of this study can be used to design useful educational interventions to conduct and facilitate the process.

“…However, the researchers pointed to the facilitators of professional socialization, such as professional context (Dinmohammadi et al 2017), supportive teachers (Curtis et al 2012), and interactive learning (Holley and Taylor 2009). Research has also confirmed that studies with small samples of interviews are suitable for exploring deep structures and interpersonal problems (Salisu et al 2019).…”

“…As in the meta-analysis of the literature by Barretti (2004a), Salisu et al (2019) conducted a systematic review of facilitators and challenges of professional socialization, and a narrative synthesis was used to analyze the available data. They found that eight studies pointed to such challenges of professional socialization, such as incongruence of theory and practice (Zarshenas et al 2014), disintegration (Dinmohammadi et al 2017), and focused education (Condon and Sharts-Hopko 2010).…”

The factors that promote successful professional socialization have become a primary focus of study through the expansion of higher education. The structural changes in the labor market of post-socialist countries such as Hungary over the last three decades have presented a challenge to the training areas of social and educational professions. In Hungary, these professions are not very attractive, the degrees have a low profitability, and the working people already face great challenges when looking for a job. Our research question is whether the traditionally theoretical character of higher education is able to keep up with the dynamic changes in the reality of the labor market. By interviewing 20 professionals about their professional experience and career plans, we tried to answer the questions about the low attractiveness and low retention rate of these professions. We compared the careers of bachelor’s graduates with degrees in social work, youth work, and education. The qualitative analysis showed that professionals whose training included more field exercises and supervision were more successful. They had increased their professional and social capital, and these helped them to integrate into the labor market.

“…Dinmohammadi et al conducted a concept analysis of nursing professional socialization and found that professional socialization is a complex process with four key attributes: learning, interaction, development, and adaptation [5]. Salisu et al stated that the attributes and antecedents of professional identity of the nurse are related to the personal dimensions of competence, con dence, insight, capability, and selfre ection ability [2]. Nursing competency also has an in uence on professional socialization [1,5,6,18].…”

“…The objectives of this study are as follows: (1) To verify the reliability and validity of the professional socialization model as a means to study the key aspects of self-learning effectiveness, caring behavior, self-re ection, and nursing competence. (2) To determine whether there are differences in the effects of the professional socialization model in terms of gender. In order to achieve the above research purposes, we perform the following literature review.…”

Abstract Background Nursing professional socialization significantly influences the sustainable development of nursing students’ careers. Nevertheless, there is still a lack of research on the factors that influence nursing professional socialization in nursing education. This study aims to examine the factors that influence professional socialization in nursing students. The study adopts a multigroup approach for comparison between female and male subsamples. Methods This is a cross-sectional, quantitative study of a sample of 108 nursing students (80 females and 28 males). The Simulation Learning Effectiveness Scale, Caring Assessment Report Evaluation Q-sort, Self-Reflection and Insight Scale, and Holistic Nursing Competence Scale were used to collect the data on the independent variables. The Team Skills Scale, Nursing Image as a Profession questionnaire, and Nursing Professional Commitment Scale were used to assess the level of students’ nursing professional socialization, which is an outcome construct variable. A multigroup analysis with partial least squares structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data and to examine the professional socialization research model. Results The full model findings show that individual learning effectiveness had a significantly positive effect on nursing students’ caring behavior (ß = 0.47, p < .001) and on self-reflection and insight (ß = 0.32, p < 0.1). In addition, caring behavior (ß = 0.64, p < .001) and self-reflection and insight (ß = 0.29, p < .001) had a significantly positive effect on nursing competence. Finally, nursing competence also had a significantly positive effect on nursing professional socialization (ß = 0.61, p < .001). Overall, all independent variables were significant predictors of nursing professional socialization, explaining 36.7% of the variance in the integrated model of professional socialization. In addition, a permutation test revealed no differences in the two comparisons’ path coefficient estimates in the model (female vs. male). Conclusion The findings reveal that the result of an all-path coefficient parametric on the professional socialization model does not differ by gender. Therefore, for both female and male students, it is important to further strengthen nursing students’ self-learning effectiveness to promote their self-reflection and caring behavior. Increasing students’ nursing competence is a key factor in improving their professional socialization.
