“…However, our findings suggest that the influence of a patriarchal cultural background can be overcome by demographic characteristics, motives for MS, and academic achievement. This is also supported by the results of previous studies [25][26][27], which showed that motive can affect MS. In these studies, MS was highest in students who voluntarily chose their majors based on suitability and interest.…”

This study aimed to identify the relationships between gender role stereotypes (GRS), patriarchal family environment, and major satisfaction (MS) and their associated factors in nursing students. A total of 195 nursing students (154 women, 41 men) were surveyed online in South Korea from May to June 2020. The Gender Role Stereotype Inventory was used to assess gender role stereotypes, while patriarchal family environment and MS were evaluated using a 11-item instrument for testing patriarchal family environment and the Major Satisfaction Inventory, respectively. Men demonstrated stronger gender role stereotypes and patriarchal family culture than women. Patriarchal family culture was significantly correlated with gender role stereotypes and MS. A multiple regression analysis was performed to identify the effects of age, academic performance, motive for MS, intellectual GRS, social GRS, and patriarchal family environment on MS. The explanatory power of this model was 12.2%. Younger age, higher grade point average, voluntary selection of major, lower intellectual gender stereotypes, and higher social gender stereotypes predicted higher MS. Further studies on cultures in Asia and the world are needed to understand the impact of the patriarchal family culture and gender role stereotypes of nursing students on school adaptation.

“…Professional identity is important for the education, career development, and retention of students [7,8]. The career identity of college students was found to be closely related to occupational decision-making [9,10]. Therefore, career identity for nursing students is important to produce nurses who can contribute positively to healthcare.…”

In Korea, the number of admissions to nursing colleges has greatly increased over the past 20 years to address the shortage of nurses. However, many nursing students have unclear career identities during college and stop working in healthcare after graduation. This study aimed to examine the effects of self-esteem, problem-solving ability, and professional nursing values on career identity. The participants were 140 third- and fourth-year nursing students recruited from a university in South Korea. Data were collected between September and October 2019 using a self-administered questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation, and multiple linear regression. The results showed significant correlations between satisfaction with college life and major subject, subjective academic achievement, self-esteem, problem-solving ability, professional nursing values, and career identity. The factors that significantly affected career identity were self-esteem and professional nursing values. Nursing educators can support the career development of nursing students by enhancing their self-esteem and professionalism, along with efforts to improve satisfaction with their college life and major.

“…The gap between the perceptions and the capability to work in a COVID-19 ward might impair nurses' competence, leading to identity crisis around continuing work or education even after the pandemic has receded. 26,27 Previous research suggests that emergency situations can elicit identity crises among nurses in the Japanese context. 28 In this study, nurses often cared for older people with multimorbidity, which needed close care and physical touch and felt identity crisis owing to a sense of inadequacy to conduct patient care.…”

Introduction This study inquires into nurses' changing perceptions with regard to the efforts in preparation for working in a COVID‐19 ward in the rural Japanese context. Methods Data were collected using ethnographic methods and semi‐structured interviews among 16 nurses working in the COVID‐19 ward of a rural community hospital in Japan. A grounded theory approach was used for the qualitative analysis. Results In total, 70 hours' observation and participation were completed, and 27 pages of field notes were taken and used for the analysis. In addition, 32 interviews were conducted with 16 participants. Four themes emerged from the data: pre–COVID‐work perceptions, overcoming fear, shadow cast by working in the COVID‐19 ward, and an integrated approach to the fear of COVID‐19. The nurses initially felt unpredictable fear. However, the establishment of standard approaches and practices for COVID‐19 gave them confidence in their safety and helped them regain sympathy for patients. Nevertheless, working on COVID‐19 cases negatively affected their activities outside of the ward, and some of them developed an identity crisis as they feared for the future. Conclusion Better teamwork, comprehensive understanding of COVID‐19, and continuous provision of proper knowledge in rural hospitals should be driven by appropriate understanding and sympathy for nurses and patients in COVID‐19 wards. The results of this study can be applied to mitigate nurses' fear, improve teamwork, and ensure understanding of COVID‐19 by all medical staff in rural hospitals.
