Objective:To investigate the academic burnout level of nursing interns, and to analyze the influence path of nursing professional self-concept and professional values on the academic burnout of nursing interns.Methods:From September to December 2021, 204 nursing students who practiced for 6 months in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were surveyed using the College Student Learning Burnout Scale, the Nursing Professional Self-Concept Scale and the Nursing Professional Values Scale. Structural equation modeling using AMOS 23.0.Results:The total score of academic burnout was (52.37 ± 11.60), which was in the middle level. The results of correlation analysis showed that the nurses' professional values were negatively correlated with depression, misbehavior, and low sense of achievement ( r=-0.253, -0.256, -0.406), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). Nursing professional self-concept was negatively correlated with depression, misbehavior, and low sense of achievement ( r=-0.466, -0.414, -0.525), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). Intern nursing students' nursing occupational self-concept had a partial mediating effect on their professional values and academic burnout, and the mediating effect accounted for 48.57% of the total effect. Conclusions:Professional values of nursing students can directly affect academic burnout, and also indirectly affect them through nursing professional self-concept.
