- Abstract
Past work has shown that professionals have different patterns of interpersonal contacts in different settings. Verbal defining constitutes one unstudied aspect ofsuch contacts. This article uses certam attributes of a juvenile court setting to formulate hypotheses on the relative importance of 6 measures of professional identity and 10 kinds of defining. Pearson and canonical correlations support 14 of the 16 hypotheses in that juvenile court. These results point to the utility of a situational approach to professional identity and defining.
