Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of positive psychological capital and resilience on adjustment of college life and to suggest strategies for improving the adjustment of college life of nursing students. Data were collected from September 10 to September 30, 2020 using a structural questionnaire, which was completed by 197 nursing students in G city. The data was analyzed using SPSS/WIN (Version 22.0). The factors affecting the adjustment of college life of nursing students included positive psychological capital (ß=.36, p<.001), subjective health status (ß=.22, p<.001), resilience (ß=.21, p=.024), and major satisfaction (ß=.11, p=.047). These factors accounted for 47.0% of the adjustment of college life (p<.001). It is important to find ways to improve the level of positive psychological capital of nursing students and there is a need to include education programs or practical interventions to strengthen positive psychological capital.
