Stages of Transition Theory (Judy Boychuk Duchscher, 2000s) – a three-stage model that describes the rapid evolution of professional identity and expertise in high-stress contexts. The stages are: Doing (becoming aware of, adjusting to, and accommodating to workplace realities and pressures through performing); Being (rapid development of skills, knowledge, and reasoning – prompting some questioning and doubt); Knowing (emergence of confidence and individuation – enabling both critique and acceptance).
