• Motivations for choosing teaching as a career: a perspective of pre-service teachers from a Turkish context (2013, background): “’’ In another study, Zehir-Topkaya and Uztosun (2012) showed that female pre-service English teachers in Turkey chose teaching based on intrinsic and altruistic motives more than males did.”
• Factors Influencing Teaching Choice in Turkey (2012, background): “Although Topkaya and Uztosun (2012) recently used an adapted version of the FIT-Choice scale also with preservice English teachers in Turkey, they did not check whether constructs were valid using these approaches.”
• Choosing Teaching Profession as a Career: Students' Reasons. (2014, unknown): “This is consistent with the results which were found in some other studies (Butcher & Lewis, 2002; Chan, 1998; Daehlen, 2007; Hutchinson & Johnson, 1994; Johnston, McKeown, & McEwen, 1999; D.
