- W2611022014 abstract "IntroductionBeing a music therapist is an in-depth, lifelong process, not begun or completed with a degree.(Hesser, 1988, p.67)This paper outlines findings of research investigating factors that influence professional identity of individual New Zealand music therapists over time and how these factors might have shaped profession as a whole.Professional identity is a term used to describe both collective understanding of a profession held by its members and an individual's sense of self within professional role (Feen-Calligan, 2012) and it is underpinned by concepts of personal and social identity of individual (Bruss & Kopala, 1 993; Friedman & Kaslow, 1 986; R0nnestad & Skovholt, 2003; Skovholt & R0nnestad, 1 992). It is therefore not a stable entity and is one of multiple social identities an individual holds (Clarke, Hyde, & Drennan, 201 3; Hotho, 2008). Variation within countries in development of music therapy professional identity demonstrates that professional identity is interwoven with individual, group, and cultural dimensions that evolve over time. The findings of this investigation, situated in New Zealand, are therefore likely to be unique to this country.Here in New Zealand, music therapy is a relatively new profession, and practitioners are developing work in a range of contexts which require diverse approaches. In 2003, first New Zealand tertiary music therapy course was introduced at Massey University (now at New Zealand School of Music, Victoria University of Wellington). At that point there were 14-1 6 qualified music therapists in New Zealand (Croxson, 2003). The Registrar of NZ Music Therapy Registration Board confirmed that, in 201 6, this number has increased to 77 (P. Press, personal communication, June 6, 201 6). This growth in number of practitioners suggests music therapy's presence and identity will be evolving.Professional IdentityProfessionals develop through identifying distinctive characteristics of that particular profession (Bonny, 1997; Feen-Calligan, 2005). These characteristics may include language used to establish meanings (Slay & Smith, 2010), skills that form profession's area of expertise, profession's values, and way members of professional group understand world (Glen, 1999). Professional identity relates to seeing oneself as a member of a professional group (Cerulo, 1997; Crossley & Vivekananda-Schmidt, 2009) and unique name that is associated with profession (Giddens, 1979; Hotho, 2008). Group identity is present when members of group go through similar identification processes (Mossler, 2011, p.1 58). Individuals use their personal attributes, beliefs, values, motives, and experiences to define themselves within a specific professional framework (Ibarra, 1999). Professional roles, and an individual's self-concept in those roles, therefore, develop over time and with experience, as individuals adapt to role demands (Feen-Calligan, 201 2).Music Therapy and Professional IdentityO'Brien and Goldstein (1 985) believe three stages are essential in development of professional identity of music therapist: early experience and education (both formal and informal); demonstration of professional skills; and consolidation and integration of music therapy experiences and concepts. However, they state that the feeling that one is a music therapist at core, must be maintained (O'Brien & Goldstein, 1985, p.37).Music therapy studies into specific aspects of a music therapists' professional life reflect that individual music therapist does not exist in isolation from their life experiences, beliefs, and values. Rather, these combine to influence and shape their professional identities. Musical identity, for example, can play a large part in formulating, developing, and expressing individual identity (Aldridge, 1 996) and can develop and change over time both on an individual and group level (Macdonald, Hargreaves, & Miell, 2002). …" @default.
