Nonetheless, the pre-service stage does not create sufficient opportunities to develop their professional identities. Also, there is a lack of long-term empirical data for this process. This longitudinal narrative study involved a dynamic online knowledge community in which students shared confusion, anxiety, and transformation about professional identity. Through capturing their reflections and interactions, the study explored how their professional identities developed over time through the online community in medical school and how this community best supported professional identity development. Method: We collected data from chat records and telephone interviews, using the narrative inquiry method and its interpretative tools to analyze professional identity development. Quantitative analysis was carried out to reveal some influencing factors. Results: Fine-grained analysis showed that medical students experienced a contextual change from individual identity to physician community and a collaborative process to create a supportive environment to develop a professional identity through multi-layered interactions. The analysis also identified that in a virtual community that formed group resonance, medical students balanced their self-identities and professional identity through changed perspectives to engage in selfreflection, with mentor coordination, blended interaction, and facilitating strategies as influencing factors. Our study uniquely presents online learning patterns and identity development trajectories. Conclusions: The study complements the literature about online communities and the professional identity of medical students and has important implications for online informal learning","PeriodicalId":42280,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychological and Educational Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136183289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such limitations reduce the ability to understand faculty work motivation and, thus, to facilitate its development. To overcome these, the Affective Events Theory was applied to the domain of faculty work motivation. The resultant model was tested using faculty participants from 24 doctoral universities. Participants completed a survey assessing work-related characteristics, affect (burnout), and cognitions. Results revealed that faculty at doctoral universities (i.e., High and Very High Research Activity Universities) experienced less burnout when they received support from their institution, had autonomy in structuring their daily tasks, viewed their job as important, completed their tasks from beginning to end, experienced less skill and task variety, and were in good health. Those who experienced burnout reported diminished job satisfaction, reduced commitment, and less intention to stay in academia. The implications for theoretical research, institutional policy, and practice are discussed.","PeriodicalId":42280,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychological and Educational Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135471782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

People pay more attention to ability, especially creativity, than to knowledge. It is much easier to make up for the lack of knowledge than to make up for the lack of ability. However, in pedagogy and psychology, there is only the concept of the desire for knowledge, but not the concept of the desire for ability and the concept of the desire for innovation. The strange phenomenon of \"using cognitive interest to carry out intellectual and creative education\" has existed for a long time. This makes insufficient the subjective initiative of \"the cultivation of ability and innovation consciousness that must be started and run through\". Strong comprehensive ability and innovation are the needs of the times for talents. Ability and innovation awareness can be cultivated. Just as the levels of knowledge and ability are different, the levels of thirst for knowledge and thirst for ability are also different. The thirst for knowledge cannot replace the thirst for ability and innovation. The process and methods of ability development and knowledge transfer are different and cannot be replaced by each other. It is necessary and possible to establish the concept of desire for ability and desire for innovation.

Local information is scarce on psychiatry trainees' satisfaction to their training program. Objective To assess psychiatry trainees satisfaction towards postgraduate program in Clinical MD in Psychiatry at the Sudan Medical Specialization Board in 2021. Method This is a cross-sectional observational study conducted at the Sudan Medical Specialization Board / psychiatry council/ Clinical MD in Psychiatry program, within the period from August 2021 to January 2022. 137 of current psychiatry trainees and graduates were surveyed using a closed-ended unipolar 5 grade Likert’s scale, through adapted a self -administered questionnaire covering eight dimensions and variety of psychiatry training items. Areas covered were curriculum coverage, research involvement and training assessment methods, clinical experiences, academic experiences, supervision, training centers support and training environment. Result The overall trainee's satisfaction with the provided training program was reported in 35%. The satisfaction score was observed to be more common in the graduates (62%) compared to the current trainees (38%). The areas of good satisfaction include: training in adult general psychiatry (69.6%), diversity of patients' population (72%), part-1 exam (77.5%) and level of support from peers (75.2%). while areas of low level satisfaction include: quality of physical facilities(10.4%),education prioritization over service(11.2%) training in psychiatry subspecialties(12.6%), learning resources(13.6%), safety of environment(14.2%). overall research experiences(21.9%), academic activity at training centers(24.8%), organization of learning activities(24.8%), responsiveness of program to feedback from residents(24%), frequency of supervision received(30.4%) continuous assessment(36.4%), received constructive feedback(37.6%) and training in emergency room(40%).

The project is part of a statewide initiative led by the Tennessee Board of Regents (TBR) to increase equity in access to quality, no/low-cost educational materials. The overarching goal is to increase success rates and improve educational outcomes for traditionally underserved students, such as but not limited to students of color, first-generation college students, and economically disadvantaged students. Pellissippi State has traditionally been the largest community college in the state of Tennessee and its enrollment population is made of both traditional and non-traditional students from every race and socio-economic income level. However, data collected prior to this transition has revealed lower completion and retention rates among minorities. A research team at Pellissippi State Community College was awarded two separate grants by TBR to conduct these transitions. This presentation will consist of two parts. The first part summarizes the process of transitioning the Introduction to American Government course to an OER textbook created by OpenStax, along with adopting and creating additional open access materials during the 2021-2022 academic year. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected and analyzed from a total of 14 sections of the course to determine the impact of the transition. The second part will chronicle ongoing efforts of an inter-departmental team – consisting of faculty from Political Science, Media Technologies and Web Design, and Librarian Services – to create an Open Access Publication for the Introduction to Political Science course.
