Objectives The purpose of this study is a descriptive research study to confirm the relationship between positive thinking, grit, and major commitment of nursing college students and to identify factors influencing major commitment. Methods The subjects of this study were 145 nursing college students located in G Metropolitan City, and data collection was conducted from May 10 to June 12, 2023. The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis using SPSS/WIN 29.0 program. Results Major commitment had a significant positive correlation with positive thinking (r=.41, p<.001) and grit (r=.37, p<.001). Factors affecting major commitment of nursing college students were positive thinking (β=.32, p<001.) and grit (β=.26, p<.05), which explained 21.3% of variance. The subject's major commitment was 3.76 points (5 points), positive thinking was 3.12 points (5 points), and grit was 3.11 points (5 points). Conclusions As a result of the study, it will be necessary to develop a program to improve positive thinking and grit in order to increase nursing student’s major commitment.
