Research Progress on the Influencing Factors of Professional Identity Among Students Majoring in Modern Home Economics Service and Management
Abstract
faces a critical talent dilemma: while market demand for professionals surges, students majoring in Modern Home Economics Service and
Management (MHE-SM) often exhibit low professional identity, leading to "high employment rates but low retention rates". Professional
identity, as a multifaceted psychological construct encompassing cognitive recognition, emotional attachment, and behavioral commitment,
directly impacts students' learning motivation, career choices, and long-term industry engagement. This review systematically synthesizes
domestic and international research (20042024) on MHE-SM students' professional identity. It first clarifies the concept and characteristics
of professional identity for this major, then categorizes influencing factors into four dimensionsindividual traits, family environment, institutional education, and social contextwith empirical evidence supporting each factor. Additionally, it identifies current research gaps, such
as insufficient exploration of cross-factor interaction mechanisms and a lack of major-specific intervention studies. Finally, future directions
are proposed, including strengthening interdisciplinary empirical research and developing targeted intervention strategies. This review aims to
provide a theoretical basis for enhancing MHE-SM students' professional identity and promoting high-quality development of the home economics industry.
