Assessment of Professional Identity Formation and Influencing Factors in Student Pharmacists
The overall level of PI among student pharmacists was high. White race, pharmacy conference experience, and prematriculation pharmacy work experience were significant predictors of PI. Promoting and creating equal accessibility for professional conferences and employment is likely to strengthen PI in student pharmacists. It is also important to consider how PI may differ for individuals with marginalized identities when evaluating PI.
