Photoelectron spectroscopy data from Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}Ca{sub 1{minus}x}Y{sub x}Cu{sub 2}O{sub 8+{delta}} single crystals, for x=0, 0.16, and 0.55, are presented. It is shown that there are core level shifts related to the opening of a pseudogap and that similar shifts are observed at the opening of the superconducting gap in optimally doped samples. This result is in agreement with pair formation above T{sub C} as suggested by V.J. Emery and S.A. Kivelson [Nature (London) {bold 374}, 434 (1995)]. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
