The core ideas behind AURIS.

Identity refers to the organised and evolving sense of who you are across time, roles and relationships. Identity-related processes are associated with how people interpret, decide, regulate and connect, but effects vary by context.

Occupational transition is the structured change of a person's primary role, leaving the military, the NHS, emergency services, elite sport or another high-identity occupation.

Identity Performance Psychology (IPP) is AURIS's proposed applied field of inquiry examining how identity structure, disruption and adaptation interact with regulation, behaviour and sustainable functioning or performance. Its integrated AURIS framework is being tested; the component sciences are established, but the five-pillar sequence and its incremental effects are not yet validated.

AURIS is a five-pillar framework, Awareness, Understanding, Regulation, Identity, Stability, designed to support people through identity disruption and occupational transition.

A verified, worldwide directory of support organisations, events and opportunities, built into the AURIS Identity System because the research kept showing the same problem: the right support usually exists, it is just hard to find.

Identity can shape how people understand a change in role, relationships or direction. Explore why it may matter alongside practical needs, without assuming everyone has the same experience.
