Ambrose (2002) performed a literature review on various studies and explained that most studies focused on finding answers for three important questions: (1) Why do people care about justice? (2) What affects justice judgments? and (3) What outcomes are associated with justice judgments?. Bakker and Demerouti (2008) provided an overview of the recently introduced concept of work engagement and reported that work engagement could be defined as a state including vigor, dedication, and absorption. He examined professional commitment and anticipatory socialization, operationalized by perception of financial reporting, as possible determinants of Accounting students’ ethical perceptions and intentions He reported that accounting students with higher degrees of professional commitment and higher perception of the importance of financial reporting tend to perceive questionable actions as unethical and less likely to engage in such actions compared with other students with lower commitment and lower perception of financial reporting. D. (2003) investigated organizational and professional commitment among public, notfor-profit, and proprietary social service employees She investigated whether workers' commitment to their organization and commitment to their profession were associated with an organization's auspice, to the nature of their job, and to employees' personal characteristics or not.
