Abstract

Abstract: In order to study occupational psychological state of safety practitioners more clearly and too fully bring into play their professional efficiency, a measurement model of professional identity was developed by using method of Mutually Exclusive Collectively Exhaustive (MECE) based on analysis of career definitions and role differences of safety practitioners between China and foreign countries. Then, data of 144 objects were collected and analyzed and it was found that their professional identity was at a medium level. Additionally, there were significant differences in occupational cognition of latent variables influenced by individual characteristics, such as working years, professional qualifications and technical titles. Different levels of personnel education also led to significantly diverse professional identity of target items, and they were in a positive correlation. It was also found that personals of undergraduate education level received highest professional identity. The research shows that this model can reflect professional identity of safety practitioners from six dimensions, comprehensively measure significance of individual characteristic factor difference on potential variables and target items, as well as indicate influence of educational level on self-cognition and professional evaluation of safety practitioners.

Key words: safety practitioner, professional identity, measurement model, role, behavior disposition
