Abstract

The objective of this article is to understand the teaching and commitment goals towards one´s job from the point of view of candidates applying for state primary education positions, which is a group that has hardly been studied.

The sample is made up of candidates applying for primary education posts. The results obtained by means of two questionnaires inform about the validity of the instrument, and also about the goals of candidates and their level of commitment. The relation between these two variables is analyzed, as well as any differences with regard to gender, teaching experience, or the number of public examinations taken by candidates.
