In the article from a historical perspective a theoretical analysis of the work of foreign and domestic researchers aimed at studying the concept of professional identity has been conducted. Various approaches to the study of professional identity in psychological science are considered. It is shown that professional identity is formed throughout a person’s life as a continuous process and passes through certain stages in its development. Each stage has its own characteristics and is necessary for the formation of the next. Professional identity is closely intertwined with morality, the moral and ethical standards of work, respectively, the study of the degree of formation of professional identity should be carried out taking into account ethical and deontological aspects characteristic of a particular profession. We consider domestic and foreign methods, allowing to assess the level of development of professional identity. There is a certain shortage of diagnostic tools, a small number of valid and reliable methods that have been tested on a large number of subjects. In this regard attention is focused on the need for a procedure to adapt some methods of studying professional identity, used by foreign scientists. From a practical point of view this will allow a more accurate assessment of the professional suitability of candidates in various fields of work.
