individual to a certain profession is considered important for an individual to
choose a profession matching his/her interests and abilities, and the impact of

Literature teacher candidates who completed their field of study and are
continuing the pedagogical formation program in relation to various

candidates were assessed using the “Occupational Field Interest Inventory
(OFII)” developed by Deniz (2008). The study showed that the item means of the
dimensions “Turkish Language” and “Education” in the OFII was high and also
that there were significant differences in the vocational interests of the
participants by the gender variable.
