Abstract: The present study investigated the relationships among educational policy satisfaction, faculty support and pre-service teachers' professional identity, examined the mediating effect of teaching motivation on the relationships between educational policy satisfaction and professional identity and between faculty support and professional identity. The sample included 733 pre-service teachers who completed Educational Policy Satisfaction Inventory, Faculty Support Scale, Teaching Motivation Scale and Teacher Professional Identity Scale. The results showed that (1) Grade differences in educational policy satisfaction, teaching motivation and professional identity were significant, gender difference in professional identity was significant. (2) Variables in this study were all significantly correlated with each other. (3) Educational policy satisfaction and faculty support both positively predicted professional identity, teaching motivation partly mediated the relationships between educational policy satisfaction and professional identity and between faculty support and professional identity; moreover, the mediating effect of teaching motivation on the relationship between educational policy satisfaction and professional identity was greater than the mediating effect of teaching motivation on the relationship between faculty support and professional identity. This study discussed these results and proposed corresponding solutions and suggestions.

Key words: pre-service teacher, educational policy satisfaction, faculty support, teaching motivation, teacher professional identity
