Educational institutions need to train nursing students with an eye toward vocational readiness to increase the number of graduates who will continue to work in the nursing field. This longitudinal study of junior college nursing students examines the causal relationship between vocational readiness and 3 potentially related factors (School image, degree of understanding of the lessons, and interest in nursing) using the cross-lagged effect model. The only significant relationship observed was between vocational readiness and the student's interest in nursing. As having an interest in nursing increases vocational readiness, fostering an interest in nursing should raise their perceived value of working as a nurse, potentially increasing the number of graduates who remain working as nurses.
