论文摘要
讲师通常要适应研究生的监督实践的压力越来越大，以便更好地为研究生准备学术界的职业。在本文中，我们研究了这种压力可能对理论物理学家的监督和制备意味着什么，理论物理学是物理学的子学科，通常被认为是高度专业的科学实践领域。在这项探索性研究中，我们将合法守则理论的专业化维度的概念应用于分析和揭示基于理论物理学身份发展的自身人口术语的研究期间可能发生的主要概念和代码以及研究期间可能发生的代码变化。这些发现证明了成为合法理论物理学家的旅程中知识和知识属性的基础价值，以及研究生主管在促进理论物理学身份发展过程中所扮演的关键作用。同样，强调对面对要在学术界以外从事就业的学生面临的主管可能会产生影响。
There is increasing pressure generally for lecturers to adapt their supervision practices of postgraduate students to better prepare postgraduate students for careers outside of academia. In this paper we examine what such pressure may mean for the supervision and preparation of theoretical physicists specifically, theoretical physics being a sub-discipline of physics usually perceived as a highly specialised niche area of scientific practice. In this exploratory study we apply the concepts of the Specialisation Dimension of Legitimation Code Theory to analyse and reveal the dominant concepts and codes, as well as the code shifts that may occur during postgraduate studies, based on an autoethnographic account of theoretical physicist identity development. The findings demonstrate an underpinning value for both knowledge and knower attributes in the journey to becoming a legitimate theoretical physicist, and the critical role played by postgraduate supervisors in facilitating the process of theoretical physicist identity development. Also highlighted are possible implications for supervisors faced with students intending to take up employment outside of academia.
