Annotation Burns and Hall (2009) embraced the use of theories of identity in order to contemplate mentoring relationships that should prevail between doctoral students and faculty members. The two authors stipulated that for the doctoral students to attain effective transition and become professional researchers, they need to conceptualize themselves both as individuals and professionals, as well as negotiate new identities. For this reason, the two authors suggested that there is need for professionalism to learn more about identity formation in order to gain more insights concerning how to socialize with the highly diverse groups of doctoral students. Moreover, the two authors stipulate that most faculty members are resourceful in offering guidance on doctoral education, because they have the relevant training and expertise. This means that when doctoral students comes for professional mentoring services from such a faculty member, they end up gaining a lot especially due to the fact that the faculty member would only deliver the best experience in doctoral program.
