“…Occupation, as a concept, can be explained as the whole of activities in which individuals constantly strive to maintain their lives and meet their needs in this way (Brasic-Royeen, 2002;Wu & Lin, 1999).

The study was designed according to the survey model. For this reason, data were obtained from a large population. While the population consists of 267 teacher candidates enrolled in the pedagogical formation program in 2022 at a university in the east of Turkey, the sample consists of 216 teacher candidates determined by the simple random sampling method. The data collection tool used in the study is the “Teaching Profession Engagement Scale-TPES”. The study concludes that the professional commitment levels of pre-service teachers registered in the pedagogical formation program were high. Additionally, it is also revealed that the professional commitment of teacher candidates differs according to the variables (field, high school, mother's education level and mother's profession).

“…Essa posição se fundamenta em dois argumentos inter-relacionados. O primeiro é que as sociedades contemporâneas são altamente complexas e segmentadas, de tal modo que as pessoas possuem filiações sociais múltiplas que não necessariamente coincidem (Blau e Schwartz, 1984;DiMaggio e Mohr, 1985;Faunce, 1990).
