This study aimed to explore the effects of nurse's image, major satisfaction, and job esteem on the nursing professional values of nursing students. This study surveyed 164 third and fourth-year nursing students from two universities. The SPSS/23.0 program was used to analyze the data with descriptive statistics; an independent t-test, analysis of variance ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and mediating effect analysis were performed using Process Macro 4.0. The result showed positive correlations between nursing professionalism and nurse's image (r=.655, p<.001), satisfaction with major (r=.422, p<.001), and job esteem (r=.720, p<.001). Satisfaction in major and job esteem were found to mediate the relationship between the nurse's image and nursing professionalism. Based on the results of this study, to establish a proper sense of nursing professionalism among nursing students, it is necessary to enhance positive perceptions of nurses, improve satisfaction with the major, and increase job esteem. This can be achieved through curriculum development, improvements in hospital environments, activities aimed at changing perceptions of nurses, and ongoing reforms in relevant systems.
