Abstract
This study is a descriptive survey research aims to the effects of nursing college students' career decision-making self-efficacy and major satisfaction on their occupational value during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants were 170 juniors and seniors from five nursing college located in D and K regions. Data were collected from September 10 to November 11, 2022. The collected data were analyzed using frequency and percentage, mean and standard deviation, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and hierarchical regression with the IBM SPSS 21.0 program. The results of the study showed that major satisfaction was a significant variable in explaining occupational value, with an explanatory power of 22.1%(F=8.98, p<.001). Therefore, it is necessary to encourage participation in mentoring, career exploration and nursing profession awareness improvement programs for nursing college students, in order to enhance their occupational value by increasing their major satisfaction.
