Three-quarters of the participants (72.3%) reported that they had chosen the nursing profession willingly.…”

Results: A positive correlation was found to be statistically significant between nursing students' professional values and care behaviours (r = 0.423, p < 0.05). Statistical analysis showed that there was a significant difference statistically between classes in terms of nursing students' care behaviours (p < 0.05), while no statistically significant differences were found between classes in terms of nursing students' professional values (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The current study showed that caring behaviours were affected by the professional values of nursing students. furthermore, it was observed that nursing students who have stronger orientations towards professional values show a higher frequency of caring behaviour.

Background: Students’ reasons for choosing nursing and their expectations of education and future career might have an impact on how they manage their studies. During upcoming training, the students need to acquire certain skills and competencies to become professional nurses able to handle complex situations. Therefore, it is of interest to understand students’ perceptions of upcoming education and their ideas about future occupation. This study aimed to investigate newly admitted nursing students’ viewpoints about training to become a professional nurse.Methods: A descriptive cohort study was designed using interviews and questionnaires undertaken at one university in Stockholm, Sweden August 2015 to June 2017. All students starting the program were invited to participate. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected by using individual interviews (n=126) and questionnaires (n=158). Content analysis of the transcribed interviews was used to identify a theme. Sample percentages, mean score and standard deviation were calculated for data from questionnaires using descriptive statistics.Results: Seven main categories were identified, 1. Nursing as role model, 2. Self-confidence in a new environment, 3. Develop nursing attitudes and skills, 4. Opportunities to impact the future, 5. Stimulating hands-on teamwork, 6. Don´t manage the task, 7. Surrounding factors prohibiting success. Additionally, students generally rated higher for positive emotions, and lower for negative on a 7 graded Likert scale. The finding indicated that the newly admitted nursing students in general had a strong intrinsic social orientation to learning.Conclusion: As findings suggests, students put faith in their own ability and want to make a difference by altruistic reasons when entering the training. It is essential for educators to gain a deeper understanding of the visions of newly admitted students to nurture and empower their enthusiasm during training.

“…Career identity is associated with a student's competence, learning motivation and outcomes, and quality of choices [12]. The motivation, learning experiences, work performance, and career plans of nursing students are affected by their conceptualization of nursing practice and reasons for choosing the profession [13]. In a cross-sectional study of nursing students in South Korea, low nursing professionalism, such as a lack of understanding of the roles and responsibilities of nurses or having a negative occupational view, was associated with negative career-related identity and behavior [14].…”

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.
