This tool measures five factors of professionalism: organization as major referent, belief in public service, belief in self - regulation, sense of calling to the f ield and autonomy . Professionalism will be measured by calculating means of each factor and collective mean of factors for each profession . The study suggest that all under study professions have professionalism in them but there is room for improvement as well.
