Abstract
ABSTRACT The Factors Influencing Teaching Choice (FIT-Choice) scale measures pre-service teachers’ understanding of initial motivations for choosing teaching as a career. A sample of 95 primary and 247 secondary pre-service teachers from Pakistan reported their reasons for choosing teaching as a career. This study used principal component and confirmatory factor analyses to test the validity and reliability of the FIT-Choice scale from a cross-cultural viewpoint set within a Muslim, Asian context. The results showed different gender preferences toward job security. Findings showed the different constructs that may be influenced by Pakistani culture and the educational context.
