The sample group of the study consisted of 185 teachers who worked in a district affiliated to Denizli province.

It was concluded that the cognitive maturity subscale had a significant effect on the continuing attachment, emotional attachment, and normative attachment dimensions and that the participation subscale was a significant predictor of the continuity attachment subscale.
