Abstract：Objective To explore the chain mediating effect of future work self-clarity and academic self-efficacy in the mechanism through which educational gain influences academic boredom among nursing students in higher vocational colleges,to provide theoretical refer-ences for developing effective strategies to mitigate academic boredom.Methods A total of 1 328 nursing students from a medical and health vocational college in Heilongjiang Province were selected as the research objects.The general data questionnaire,College Students' Sense of Acquisition Scale,Future Work Self Clarity Scale,Academic Self-Efficacy Scale,and Academic Boredom Questionnaire for Higher Vocational College Students were used to investigate.Results The total scores of sense of education acquisition,future work self-clarity,academic self-efficacy and academic boredom were(120.34±18.47)score,(17.38±2.97)score,(73.40±8.14)score and(47.04±8.04)score,respectively.The sense of educational acquisition,future work self-clarity,academic self-efficacy were negatively correlated with academic boredom(r1=-0.453,r2=-0.480,r3=-0.455;P＜0.01).The mediating effect analysis showed that the total effect of sense of education acquisition on academic boredom was-0.453,which the mediating effect of future work self-clarity and academic self-efficacy accounted for 26.27%and 9.49%respectively of the total effect,and the chain mediating effect of the two accounted for 11.48%of the total effect.Conclusion The nursing students in higher vocational colleges exhibit moderate to low levels of academic boredom.The chain mediating effect of future work self-clarity and academic self-efficacy could establish in the mechanism through which educational gain influences academic boredom.Nurs-ing educators should adopt multifaceted strategies to enhance students' educational acquisition,strengthen their future work self-clarity and academic self-efficacy,thereby effectively mitigating academic boredom.
