Social studies course, focused mainly on raising active citizenship, is given (lectured) by teachers who received training on this field. This study was carried out to reveal social studies prospective teachers’ active citizenship self-efficacies within the scope of levels of empathy and acceptance of differences. For this, scales of active citizenship self-efficacies, of empathy level and acceptance of differences were applied to 378 in total of prospective teachers who are studying at faculty of education at two state universities. Data obtained of scales were analysed using SPSS package software. Relationship of the applied scales with faculty, class, rural-urban origin was examined. Independent t test for unrelated two samples, and one-way analysis of variance for unrelated k-sample were carried out, and multiple regression analysis was performed to reveal predicting situation/state of level of active citizenship self-efficacies by level of empathy and acceptance of differences. As result of the analysis, it was found that prospective teachers’ active citizenship self-efficacies and level of empathy were high; that of acceptance of differences was very high. According to this, empathy and acceptance of differences explain the situation/state of active citizenship self-efficacies by 24% . In terms of multicultural education, empathy and acceptance of differences are effective in raising active citizens. active citizenship requires not only participation in politics, but also high acceptance and empathy for different segments of society  \nKeywords: Social Studies, Active Citizenship, Empathy, Acceptance of Differences, Prospective Teachers, Regression Analysis  \nDOI: 10.29329/epasr.2020.345.7  \n1Assistant professorEducation Faculty, Manisa Celal Bayar University,Manisa, Turkey, ORCID: 0000-0003-0807-7494  \nCorrespondence: first author’s email [address. nalankoglu@gmail.com](address. nalankoglu@gmail.com)  \n2 Associate professor, Buca Education Faculty, Dokuz Eylül University, İzmir, Turkey, ORCID: 0000-0003-0338-1366, [Email:gulersoy74 @gmail.com](Email:gulersoy74 @gmail.com)  \nIntroduction  \nIn the most general sense, citizenship is a political bond that arranges relationships between the state and the individual (Sejersen, 2008) . Throughout history, main purpose of system, called as state, has been to raise good citizen. Although the concept ‘‘good citizenship’’ has undergone some changes during historical process, it indicates mainly commitment (dedication) to that state. As a matter of fact, it was stated that city inhabitants can not go out of the city in Sumerian and Assyrian Laws (Codes of Sumerian and Assyrian) (Karakoç, 2012) . In Ancient Greece, the concept ‘‘citizen’’was used, which states affiliation (belonging) to city-state (Polat, 2011); however, right of participation to political life was entitled to a certain section only. It can be said that women and slaves could not take advantage of public rights, that is, they had not been accepted as citizen in the Romans who had used similar legal (law) system, as well (Osmanağaoğlu, 2004) . That ‘‘the cizitenship fact’’ gained a political meaning came true through 1789 French Revolution (Demirbaş & Aydınözü, 2020) .  \nBond providing an individual’s affiliation (belonging) to a state is citizenship, and person whois affiliated (is committed/attachment) to that state with nationality bond is called as citizen. In a state, it is necessary for individuals to be affiliated (attacted/committed) to that state with citizenship bond so that they can take advantage of rights granted by the state (Karaman-Kepene","cbCaihCmDbffxDa9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihCmDbffxDa9","pdf",297402,21,"English","# Introduction\n# Active Citizenship, Empathy, and Acceptance of Differences\n# Method and Data Analysis\n## Scales and Participants\n## Statistical Procedures (SPSS, t-test, ANOVA, Regression)","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the study on prospective teachers’ active citizenship?\",\"answer\":\"The study aims to reveal prospective teachers’ active citizenship self-efficacies in relation to empathy and acceptance of differences.\"},{\"question\":\"How many prospective teachers participated, and how were the data analyzed?\",\"answer\":\"A total of 378 prospective teachers participated.
