Professional readiness is essential for newly graduated nurses to effectively transition into clinical practice and deliver quality patient care. This cross-sectional study examined the factors influencing professional readiness among 206 senior nursing students at a public university in Southeastern Turkey. Data were collected using the Descriptive Information Form, Nursing Professional Commitment Scale (NPCS), Nursing Professional Values Scale (NPVS), and the Nursing Professional Readiness Perception Scale (NPRPS). Statistical analyses, including t tests, ANOVA, and path analysis, were conducted. Female students showed significantly higher levels of professional readiness and values compared to male students (p < 0.001). Income level and motivations for choosing nursing were also found to significantly impact readiness. On path analysis, professional commitment (β = 0.35, p < 0.05) and professional values (β = 0.349, p < 0.05) emerged as significant predictors of readiness, jointly explaining 34% (R = 0.34) of its variance. These findings underscore the importance of fostering professional commitment and values in nursing education to support students' readiness for clinical roles and enhance professional development.
专业准备对于新毕业护士有效过渡到临床实践并提供高质量患者护理至关重要。这项横断面研究调查了土耳其东南部一所公立大学的206名高级护理专业学生中影响专业准备的因素。使用描述性信息表、护理专业承诺量表（NPCS）、护理专业价值观量表（NPVS）和护理专业准备感知量表（NPRPS）收集数据。进行了包括t检验、方差分析和路径分析在内的统计分析。与男学生相比，女学生的专业准备和价值观水平显著更高（p < 0.001）。还发现收入水平和选择护理专业的动机对准备情况有显著影响。在路径分析中，专业承诺（β = 0.35，p < 0.05）和专业价值观（β = 0.349，p < 0.05）成为准备情况的显著预测因素，共同解释了其34%（R = 0.34）的方差。这些发现强调了在护理教育中培养专业承诺和价值观对于支持学生做好临床角色准备以及促进专业发展的重要性。
