| Abstract: | There is an increasing number of individuals who leave one occupation or profession for another even after many years of investment. This phenomenon is increasingly apparent among religious groups. This study examines the application of dissonance theory to self-concept implementation in an attempt to explain the motivational process of vocational persistence among a group of Catholic seminarians. |
