Obedience

  • Utilized validated scales for commitment, resilience, learning, innovation, and educational environment; analyzed with structural equation modeling.

Main Results:

  • Medical education environment, self-directed learning, and innovation ability directly predicted professional commitment.
  • Self-directed learning and innovation ability mediated the influence of psychological resilience and educational environment on commitment.
  • A significant chain mediating effect was found between psychological resilience, educational environment, and professional commitment via self-directed learning and innovation.

Conclusions:

  • Self-directed learning and innovation ability are key mediators in the relationship between psychological resilience, educational environment, and nursing students' professional commitment.
